Junior tennis coaching

The tennis club has a small but dedicated team of junior tennis coaches that provide regular childrens tennis coaching on Saturday mornings.

In 2002 our Club Coach was awarded Tennis Coach of the Year by Sports West. This award was chosen by Sports West in conjunction with Avon LTA, Bristol City Council and the votes of other tennis coaches for promoting junior tennis and childrens tennis coaching in schools.

As a result of our success we’ve had to start to limit the size of some after school club now have over 30 juniors - five years ago we had less than a handful.

There are 4 junior tennis coaching sessions currently run on Saturday mornings:

• 09.15 - 09.45 Pre mini tennis – for pre school and reception children
• 10.00 - 10.45 Mini tennis -red
• 11.00 - 12.00 Mini tennis – orange
• 12.00 – 1.00 Teen Club – mini green and above.

These groups are categorised on ability rather than age. To find out more about mini tennis, talk to our coach (Mark on 0117 9622663) or email him . Please come along to the first session if you haven’t attended before so we can assess the right group for you.

Adult tennis coaching

Group tennis coaching available if pre arranged on Tuesday evenings for beginners and improvers. The sessions have been popular, they are informal and usually take the format of specific coaching followed by social tennis where whatever has been coached is introduced into a game situation.

Existing members please note: please phone Mark on Mondays (962 2663) to confirm if you are going to attend on a Tuesday.

PLEASE NOTE: Mark will be on holiday from 20th July 2007 for two weeks.
