Junior Tennis and Coaching

I offer an enjoyable, structural, skills based junior tennis programme that caters for all ages from 5-18 years and all abilities.

Mini tennis programme is designed to suit players from the ages of 4-10 years and is split into 3 levels. Sessions are skills based and played on the appropriate court size using different pressurised balls and smaller rackets to help with the child's progression and make sure they have achievable goals.

Red – 8 Years and Under

Red ball is a great way for players to start out in tennis and is for players aged 8 and under. It is played on smaller courts with shorter rackets and softer balls. It’s just like the real game and gives players opportunities to have long rallies and play different types of shots.

Orange – Ages 8 & 9

Orange ball is a great way for players to continue their progress from red ball and is for players aged 8 and 9. It is played on slightly larger courts than red ball, with bigger rackets and balls that are not as soft as red balls. It’s the next stage to go through before you start playing on a full sized court and it will help players develop all the different shots, providing fun competition.

Green – 10 Years Old

Green ball is a great way for players to continue their progress from orange ball mini tennis. It is played on a full tennis court, with bigger rackets and balls that are a little softer than yellow balls. It’s the next stage to go through before you start playing with a full compression yellow ball on a full sized court and it will help players work on and improve all aspects of their game.

Yellow Ball - Ages 11-18

Yellow ball is the final stage of the Junior Programme, transitioning young people into full sized tennis courts and the fastest of the ball variations. Using full sized rackets, players will learn and progress their full court game and enjoy games, sets and tie breaks just like the professionals do.
