Coaching @ BCTC
|
Central Tennis Club has a thriving junior section with over 100 children members most of whom attend the coaching sessions throughout the week. Even though we focus on the skill and technical development of every child, we do try to base most of the learning through fun and enjoyment without the pressures that sport can cause. Our main aim is for children to enjoy tennis into adulthood. For more information on junior sessions click here. For adults, a Thursday evening is dedicated to improvers and beginners where an hours coaching is provided for new members. Coaching is also available on an individual, pairs or group basis, catering for all ages and abilities. So if you are interested in having fun while learning a new skill in a comfortable and friendly atmosphere then get in touch. Refer to the Club Diary for the start dates of 'Improvers’ sessions.
