TENNIS HOT SHOTS
For younger children we offer the Tennis Hot Shots coaching programme. Tennis Hot Shots is the national starter tennis programme for New Zealand children. The programme uses smaller courts, shorter racquets and softer balls. Sessions are made up of tactical, technical, fun and social elements which create developmental readiness in children.
TINY RACKETS
AGE 3 - 5
During this stage children will work on the basic fundamentals of Tennis. These fundamentals consist of balance, movement and coordination. We adapt the class to this age group by utilising beanbags, balloons and big balls. Parents/caregivers are required to be on court assisting in tasks.

RED RACKETS
AGE 5Â - 8
Children use a ball with 25% compression, making it easy for them to hit. The courts and nets used in the Red stage are much smaller than normal (3m or 6m wide). Red ball players are taught the basic fundamentals, which consist of swing paths, footwork and basic motor skills. We achieve these objectives while also having a bunch of fun!
