TENNIS JUNIOR

 

SATURDAY MORNING COACHING -  pre interclub

All junior members of Belmont Park Racquets enjoy attending Saturday morning coaching during Term 1 and Term 4 as part of their membership, usually  for 8 weeks.  The group sessions are 1 hour each, commencing at 9 am, 10 am and 11 am with 3 full courts and mini tennis nets. 

The groups are based on age and ability as follows:

  9 am – 10 am – Bronze   5 – 8 year olds

10 am – 11 am – Silver      9 – 12 year olds

11 am – 12 pm – Gold       12 + years

Please note interclub juniors have their own coaching programme. The above coaching groups are for pre-interclub players.

If you are new to the club please speak to one of the coaches and we will ensure your child is placed in the ideal group for their ability so that they are learning with other children of a similar level.  If our coaches suggest your child is ready to move into a higher group, we will encourage this.

We also have new junior racquets in our Pro Shop if your child would like to upgrade their racquet.  Please ask Mark Nielsen for advice.

For children who are not yet members of the club we encourage you to pop along and join into one of the groups. It is a lot of fun! We also have many junior racquets available at the club for you to borrow if you do not yet have one of your own.
