Oakleigh
Park has a large and active junior section. Whatever
your standard there is something for you.
Coaching
is organised from Mini tennis, through beginner and intermediate
levels and then, for the particularly promising players,
invitation into the Junior Tournament Squads for training,
fitness and match playing skills.
Jill
McCluskey organises the junior group coaching. Mini
tennis/tennis courses organized as Red for under 8
yrs old, Orange for 8/9 years old and Green for 10
years+. These take place during weekdays (after school)
and at weekends. 3 day couses and all day camps are
also available during school holidays.
The
club enters teams in the National Junior Club League for
all age groups.
Mini
tennis/Tennis tournaments are held during holidays.
For
those who take their Tennis less seriously and play
for enjoyment but nevertheless want to get involved
in match play, there is a Junior Club Night once a
week where Juniors compete in a ladder competition.
Although
Oakleigh Park can boast amongst its members some nationally
ranked and junior County players, the club is very keen
to encourage children of all abilities to enjoy tennis
to their own potential.
For
details on the Junior Section, call Jill McCluskey.
