Junior tennis coaching

The club has a dedicated junior tennis coaching team who run an increasingly popular mini tennis section for juniors on Saturday mornings. Five years ago the club had a couple of juniors, now we have over 30. THe emphasis of our junior tennis coaching is on FUN and we use a wide range of activities to help develop Key Core Skills and fitness as well as the usual tactical and technical tennis skills you’d expect.

Children are encouraged to develop through the club’s mini tennis award scheme – gaining certificates as they progress within each group and then move onto the next group. You can see how much the children enjoyed the session from the photo –children from our neighbouring school (Henleaze), who play here.

Children that want to play competitive tennis get the opportunity every four or so weeks within their group, as well as through the club’s annual competitions in the Summer. There’s also a rather impressive cup to be won by the older juniors!

The club is inclusive and actively promotes the inclusion of older juniors (who can play to an appropriate standard) within the club teams and practice sessions. Such juniors have the same playing rights as full adult members.

As you would expect, the club operates and strictly enforces a Child Protection Policy and all childrens tennis coaches and assistants have been police-vetted.

If you join as a Full or Beginner/Improver member, any of your children can join at a discount.
