Junior Coaching

Beginners to Tournament Players

Our programme starts for children as young as 4 years old. We can progress your child from pre-Mini Tennis right through to junior performance via our programme.  Mini Tennis is a fun progressive coaching and playing structure designed to maximize a child’s potential.  We believe competition is healthy, so we provide regular, fun, competitive opportunities in our programme. Our maximum player to coach ratio is 8:1 – often 4:1.

A little more about Mini Tennis

Mini Tennis is a great introduction to the sport for young children between 4 and 10 years old.  It’s just like the real thing, but with smaller courts, nets and rackets and lower-bouncing balls.
There are three levels of Mini Tennis; Red, Orange and Green, each with their own court size and type of ball.  This tailored approach, based on age and physical maturity enables players to develop vital skills and techniques at an early age.
The low compression balls used in Mini Tennis are also used by clubs and coaches to introduce adult beginners to the sport.  The slower and lower bouncing balls make it far easier to learn the game.
