Hot Shots
Our Junior Hot Shots Tennis coaching programme caters for children aged 4 to 15 years old. Each session runs for one hour.
The programme reinforces international best practice - promoting the game using a learning through play philosophy meaning kids learn TENNIS rather than just technique. There are plenty of opportunities for play through sessions based around fun, tactical play, skills and social development.Our coaches ensure that every child is playing with the correct size racquets, balls, and nets. The programme allows players to fit into the correct group based on their ability, while also maintaining the flexibility to move players through the various levels as and when they begin to progress.
We run 4 groups on Saturday mornings :
-
8 30 to 9 15 for 4, 5, 6 years old
-
9 15 to 10 00 for 7 and 8 years old
-
10 00 to 10 45 for 9, 10 and 11 years old
-
10 45 to 11 30 for 12 and over
We will be starting on Saturday 14th October through to Saturday 16th December, and starting again on 10th February through to 6th April.
