Tennis Coaching

Are you looking for tennis lessons for yourself or for your children? Are you an absolute beginner or a tennis returner looking to improve your game? We have regular tennis lessons for all ages, small group and individual lessons tailored to your deeds.

For children we use equipment appropriate to the stage of learning including a variety of court sizes, ball types and rackets, each designed to accelerate the learning process.

We administer the courts at both West Park on Loughborough Road and Bridgford Park on Bridgford Road, so you or your childs tennis lessons can be be very local.

Unlike those of many tennis clubs, our tennis lessons continue through the school holiday and are flexible enough to take on those who perhaps only want to engage in tennis activities through the school breaks.

Take a look at our current active programme of tennis lessons at Bridgford Park or give us a call to discuss your childs needs.

At Activeace we love to share our passion for sport with all ages and abilities, and our tots tennis programme means that children can develop their skills from a young age so they can grow up to be tennis stars!!

Our friendly leaders are committed to giving children fun and engaging activities to improve their agility, balance and co-ordination.  Classes involve mixed abilities and mixed genders so they will also interact with other children their age giving them brilliant opportunities to make new friends!

What to bring?

We provide rackets and all equipment but if your child has their own, they are welcome to bring it along. They just need to bring:

• Tracksuit and suitable shoes
• Small water bottle, for drinks breaks.

What happens after tots tennis?

Once a child starts school they will progress into the mini tennis program. This is a tennis coaching structure, which takes children from hitting their first balls over the net to playing on a full court by the age of 10.

Testimonials

This is a short testimonial from a nursery school where we run these types of tennis lessons:

“The children love doing tennis with Activeace and have learnt so much. The coaches are always so upbeat and make everything fun. We have seen the children"s ball skill and confidence improve very quickly and they love learning the correct terms.”

Isabell age 4 said “I like volleys.”

Larry age 3 said “We throw the ball.”

Archie age 3 said “We hit the ball to somebody else.”

Mini Tennis Red is the first level of the program, Children are encouraged to play Mini Red Tennis from the ages of 5 to 7. The balls are larger and softer than the yellow balls most of us know and they travel considerably more slowly.

In the Mini Red sessions children will start to learn new techniques to develop their tennis skills but the emphasis is still on activity and having fun.

Mini Tennis Orange is the second level in the mini tennis structure. Children move on to Mini Orange when they are 8 years old and continue untill the season in which they are 10.

At this stage they will use:

• 23-25 inch rackets
• mini orange tennis balls which more bouncy than the mini red balls but still softer and slower than green balls or the more familiar yellow tennis balls)
• The mini orange court that is ¾ the size of a full singles tennis court.

As children move up through the mini tennis structure their skills are constantly improving as the sessions get slightly more intense and they learn new techniques and strategies, however fun is still a huge priority.
