Tennis coaching for children at Oakleigh Park (which has a large and active junior tennis programme) runs throughout the year and every school term. For summer bookings, check out these links:
Also, we encourage children of all ages and abilities to enjoy tennis with us, giving everyone the chance to play with others of their own age and ability.
For our junior members we run a Junior club Night on Friday evening. Club nights are great fun and gets the competitive spirit going!
Junior Coaching Pathway
Our experienced LTA Coaching Team provides a safe, fun and informative environment for children of all ages and abilities to enjoy playing Tennis and receive their specialist tennis coaching for children according to age range.
We specialise in starting children on their tennis journey from as young as 2 ½ years of age and moving them on through our mini tennis red, mini orange, green and yellow stages.
All our tennis coaching for children classes follow a similar structure including warm up, ball skills (without racket), teaching point and drills, game play/match play.
The classes are designed using the appropriate ball and court size giving the player a chance to learn basic hand/eye co-ordination and racket skills.
Progress
By the time players reach Yellow stage, they will be able to score, rally from the baseline, come to the net, volley and serve.
