![Junior Tennis Coaching](https://www.kiwitennis.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Hotshots-Kids-Forehand.jpg)
Our junior coaching programme can cater for any age or ability, from a complete beginner through to national competitor. We ensure that every child can achieve their full potential. We are proud to work on a ratio of 6 students to one coach, delivering a personalised programme to each and every child we coach.
We are Tennis New Zealand Hot Shots coaches, so for our younger players we ensure they are playing with the correct sized racquets, balls and nets. The programme allows players to fit into the correct group based on ability, whilst it also maintains the flexibility to move players through the various levels as and when they begin to progress.
PRIVATE COACHING
Private tennis lessons are a great way to learn the sport, or focus on specific technical aspects of your game. You’ll improve faster and more effectively.
GROUP PRIVATES
Group privates are for more than one person wanting a private lesson with a coach. We can provide group coaching for groups of up to four people.
