Beach Haven Tennis Club

At Beach Haven Tennis Club, we offer a large array of opportunities to play tennis throughout the year. You are welcome to play individually and/or join us at any of the organised activities!
 

Wednesday Morning Social Tennis

9:00 AM - 12:00PM with a morning tea break around 10:30am

We have a keen group of mid-week social players at Beach Haven Tennis Club. The Wednesday morning tennis session is open for all members of all ages - both beginners through to experienced players.

This is a very friendly group and we strongly encourage those who are keen to swing by the club and hit a few balls to drop in.

Play is organised on the day with an occasional mid-week friendly tournament thrown in to add some variety.

Come along and have a go, no partner needed. See you there!

Wednesday & Friday Senior Social Club Evenings

7:00pm - 9:00pm

This is a great opportunity for adult members to come together and play social tennis in the evening.  Wednesday night's play is organised by a committee member often with music playing which creates a fun & friendly atmosphere.   Friday night's players rotate around so that all level of players get to play with minimal wait time.

On club nights members' guests and the public can join in for no charge for a maximum of three visits, after which they are encouraged to become members.

Saturday Junior Coaching

9:00 AM (juniors aged 5-7)  or 10:00 AM (aged 8+ and depending on playing ability - ask the coach) during the summer season. 

This has now finished for summer and will re-start in school Term 4 of 2024.

We like parents to be actively involved with the supervision and coaching of their children, and parents are encouraged to help on Saturday mornings at least once over the summer.

Junior Interclub teams start at 10 years old and run up to the age of 17.

Sunday Adult Beginner/Rusty Racquets

4:00PM - 5.00PM for beginners & 5:00PM - 6.00PM advanced beginners

Adult beginner/rusty racquet sessions are run by our coach Carwyn.  He is assisted by other developing coaches and committee volunteers.  A very keen group of players get to enjoy drills and some point play in a very welcoming learning environment. This is a great introduction to the club and many of the attendees go on to confidently attend other club sessions with some signing up to play in our interclub teams. It is a great pathway to match play. 

Come along and try it out.  Contact Carwyn directly - see our Coaches page for contact details and cost.
