Junior Coaching

We have a strong and ever expanding Junior Section that has organised coaching and squad sessions with our Hawk-i coaching team.

We would like to encourage members with young children to start them in our Mini Tennis Red programme that takes on Saturdays and Mondays after school. We use Broadbridge Heath Leisure Centre “The Bridge”, Collyer’s Sixth Form and HLTC for these sessions. Once they reach a predetermined playing level the juniors join existing players at Horsham Lawn Tennis Club.

For further details of Mini Tennis Red class times and class fees please contact Tessa Walder.

Mini Tennis levels orange and green are at the club run by Glyn.
