COACHING OPTIONS

HOT SHOTS

Tennis Hot Shots (THS) is specifically designed to give young juniors the best possible foundations to enjoy and succeed in tennis in the years to come. It's aimed at juniors with limited or no full-court match experience.

The reduced speed, bounce-height and court length is more manageable, which assists the development of correct technique and tactics.

The general guide for choosing the THS colour is:

Red (5-7 yrs), Orange (7-9 yrs), Green (9+). However, prior experience and developmental readiness will determine what the ideal colour is. If in doubt, the coach will estimate the appropriate level to begin with, and then adjust groups during the programme if necessary.

 

HOT SHOTS Red : 45 min sessions, 3:45 – 4:30pm on Friday @ TKHP Hagley Park.

(We may be able to offer other days, please email the coach if your children are keen but not able to attend Fridays)

Whole Winter: 16 weeks, 1 session per week $200.00,  2 family members $360

TKHP Emerging Squads.

This programme is an opportunity for juniors to build on the progress they have made over the Summer.  They will fine tune their technique and their tactical sense to get a head start on their competitors next Summer.

Entry level Emerging Squad players are generally 9 yrs or older, have completed a season of Hot Shots Green so they are ready for full-court, yellow ball tennis.

Advanced Emerging Squads will have interclub experience, and are aiming to play a higher level next season. Strong interclub players who cannot fit 90 min tournament squad sessions into their winter schedule will also be catered for in advanced Emerging Squads.

60 minute sessions:  

Start times will be between 3:30pm and 5:00pm   on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday @ TKHP Hagley Park.  

(Days and times are subject to compatibility with each player's schedule).

Whole Winter: 16 weeks, 1 session per week $240.00, 2 family members $440

One term only : 8 weeks, 1 session per week $140.00, 2 family members $240

 

TKHP Tournament Squads.

I encourage all juniors  competing (or aiming to)  in regional tournaments, to enrol in a Tournament Squad. The comprehensive 90 minute sessions will be challenging and rewarding. Coaching will cover advanced technique, tactics, physical fitness and the mental game.

90 minute sessions:   

Start times will be between 4:30pm and  5:30pm on Monday and Tuesday @ TKHP Hagley Park.

Whole Winter: 16 weeks, 1 session per week $350.00, 2 family members $630
