JUNIOR SESSION INFORMATION

Learn age 3 to 5 is for children aged 3 to 5 years old and enables them to learn the basics and how to enjoy the game through a series of fun activities, based on the fundamental areas of balance, co-ordination, agility, movement and racket and ball skills.

Learn years 5 to 7 is for players aged 5 to 7. It is played on small courts with short rackets and soft balls. It’s just like the real game and gives players opportunities to have long rallies and play different types of shots.

Learn years 8 to 9 is a great way for players to continue their progress from Mini Tennis Red and is for players aged approximately 8 to 9 years. It is played with shorter rackets, softer balls and courts are bigger and wider than the red stage but still smaller than full-size tennis courts allowing players to develop a rounded game whilst learning a range of techniques and tactics.

Learn years 10 to 12 is a great way for players to continue their progress from Mini Tennis Orange. It is played on a full size tennis court, with bigger rackets and balls which are a little softer than yellow balls. It’s the next stage before moving on to full compression yellow balls on a full sized court and helps players develop and improve all aspects of their game.

Once children have attended the first session the coach will assess ability and ensure that they are booked into the session which is most suited to them.
