Tennis Xpress

Runs in Term 3 2025 and offers skills & drills for those adults who want to come back into the game, or those who have never learnt to play the game.

The coaching will be tailored to each player’s needs over the 8 weeks. Lessons run for 1 hour.

The aim is to get you playing the game quickly by using lower pressure balls, flexible court sizes, simple scoring and simple technical teaching, all which promote a successful learning environment where players gain confidence, skills, and have fun as they serve, rally and score!

Classes start on Monday 14 July at 6:30pm and will run for 8 weeks. (If wet we will pick up extra sessions)

NOTE: $150 applies to non-club members, any member or parent of a member is $120
