A visit to the club on a Saturday morning will reveal coaching for juniors starting at 9:30 am, followed by junior practice.
All those who work with juniors have current DBS checks and make sure that junior members are safe, enjoy themselves and have the opportunity to develop their tennis skills through practice, encouragement and appropriate competition. Maggie Lintel is the nominated Child Protection Officer. Peter Sherlock is the club coach. As well as designated time for supervised junior practice and coaching, juniors also have priority court time allocated for playing with friends or parent members. This is every day between 4pm and 6pm on two courts and during school holidays, every day until 6pm. Juniors can also play badminton (or table tennis) on the club's 2 indoor badminton courts , although there must be an adult present when they are in the clubhouse for safety reasons (and the terms of our insurance). Junior matches take place on Sunday mornings between late April and July, and give the youngsters the opportunity to play against other local clubs. Fun tournaments are arranged throughout the year and the older juniors play in the senior club tournament and some senior P and D league matches. Junior members are also kept informed of other local tournaments and events in the tennis world and encouraged to take part. The badminton courts can be used for tennis coaching in poor weather.
