Junior Tennis and Coaching |
Children of all ages can really benefit from playing tennis. Not only as
an outlet for their boundless energy, but also from the discipline of
learning a sport and the social interaction of the game. At Limpsfield
LTC juniors are very welcome and we teach children from around 4 years
right up to adulthood to play tennis.
Junior Coaching
Our
coaches offer an enjoyable, structural, skills based junior tennis
programme that caters for all ages from 3-18 years and all abilities.
Our mini tennis programme is designed to suit players from the ages of
4-10 years and is split into 3 levels. Our sessions are skills based and
played on the appropriate court size using different pressurised balls to
help with the child's progression.
Our tennis coaching team includes
Richard Enderby. Our tennis coaches hold LTA licences, part of which includes a CRB check.

We run a
coach-led junior club mix-in session for our junior members on Saturday mornings (9:00-10:30am) for 6-12yrs. Juniors have priority on courts 2 & 3.
Limpsfield also enters a number of junior teams into the LTA County
Tournaments. For more information or if your child
is interested in playing in a club team please speak to one of the
coaches. Please note only club members can play in a club team.
As a club
member juniors can also participate in other club-arranged activities. A number of
activities will be arranged throughout the year. Please keep an eye on
the coaching notice board for information.

Junior Tennis Holiday Camps
The club
also runs a programme of enjoyable and instructional tennis camps during the
school holidays.
Fitness
Tennis is
an energetic sport which requires a reasonable level of fitness.
If a player has any health or fitness problems, or any medical
condition, then please ensure that the coach is informed at the first
session. Naturally every care is taken to ensure the safety and
well-being of the players. However, as in any sport, injuries can
occur and it is important that parents are aware of this.
