Who It’s For

  • Children aged 3–5 years+
  • New players learning basic movement and coordination
  • Young children who enjoy active, play-based learning

Ideal for children starting their tennis journey in a fun and supportive environment.

What You’ll Experience

Each session is designed to keep children engaged, active, and learning through play.

  • Fun warm-up activities to get moving
  • Skill-based activities introducing tennis fundamentals
  • Engaging games that reinforce learning

Players begin to develop:

  • Hand-eye coordination
  • Balance and movement
  • Confidence and participation

All within a supportive environment where every child can succeed.

Designed for Young Players

Everything is scaled to suit young children, making learning easier, more enjoyable, and more effective.

45min lessons

Max. 5 players per group

Play on 1/2 court

Red low compression ball
(75% slower than standard ball)

19 & 21 inch racquets

Choose The Right Level

Level 1 – Beginner

Typically suited to younger players within this age group who are new to tennis and building basic coordination, balance, and movement skills.

Level 2 – Developing Player

Typically suited to older players within this age group, including beginners, or players progressing from Level 1 and building greater confidence with ball skills, movement, and early rally foundations.

Players are grouped to ensure the best learning environment for each child.

If unsure, select the level that best matches your child’s age.

How It Works

Our junior group programs run on a term basis, helping players build consistency, confidence, and real progress over time.

  • Choose a class time that suits your schedule
  • Attend the same session each week
  • Follow a structured program designed for your child’s level
  • Players progress through levels as they develop

Tennis is a lifelong sport, and this is where your child builds a strong foundation for long-term development.
