The road to Wimbledon starts here! A fantastic introduction to tennis, these entry-level beginner sessions are both active and engaging as players learn essential tennis skills on a ‘mini’ court with smaller rackets and larger, softer red balls. A great way to make friends, have fun and learn how to rally, score and compete, all in a safe environment with fully-qualified coaches.
Summer 24: Mini Orange/Green (9-10years) Sat
Read more
You’re getting bigger, your tennis is getting even better… Get involved with Mini Orange/Green! Rackets are becoming bigger and the orange and green balls are slightly firmer. Players continue to develop a more skilful game, learning different shots with a tactical purpose but, above all, having lots of fun with friends.
Summer 24: Adult Intermediate Sat

For players who have a solid understanding of the game and a basic range of skills, that enable you to play a match. These sessions are more demanding both physically and tactically than beginners sessions. As your range of skills and ball control continue to improve, you’ll give your opponents a run for their money as well as feeling more confident in your positioning and shot selection.
