Tennis - Virgins

We will be starting on Thursday evenings weekly from May 7th to the end of September. 

Coaching is provided by Keelan Oakley a local professional tennis coach. 4 courts are available for up to 16 players.

Sessions will run from 7.15-8.15pm and then for a further 30 minutes for recreational play.

Tennis Virgins is a friendly, relaxed group which welcomes ‘rusty players’ and improvers alike. It is a perfect place for people who have not played tennis in a while or for those who do not feel they have the skills or confidence necessary to join the BLAGSS Tennis group. The sessions are not suitable for absolute beginners who have not played before.

Players will need to bring their own racquet and there will be an opportunity to play games after the coaching finishes, while it is still light.

 

 

How We Play

Our goal is to provide basic instruction and coaching to help players get to a level where they can confidently participate in the regular group or play on a club level (e.g. understanding of the game and ability to hit the ball over the net and serve properly). We play a mixture of drills/games both singles and doubles, depending on how many attend.

This is aimed at those who have played in the past, not played for some years, or those that need more confidence when playing or those who have played racquet sports but want to try tennis. Not suitable for absolute beginners or those who have not played any racquet sports.


Coaching is provided by Keelan Oakley a professional tennis coach.
