Tennis For Kids Coorparoo - Tennis Lessons & Coaching is a tennis club located in Coorparoo, Brisbane. With a focus on delivering fun and innovative tennis coaching programmes for kids, this club has been recognised as a finalist for the 2021 Tennis Queensland Club of the Year.
The club boasts a team of handpicked coaches who are dedicated to making the learning process enjoyable for children. They use the ANZ Hot Shots Framework, a programme developed by Tennis Australia, which utilises tailored equipment such as smaller courts, racquets, and low-compression tennis balls. This ensures that children are introduced to tennis in an environment suited to their age and skill level, enhancing their chances of success and enjoyment.
Tennis For Kids offers a range of lesson options and coaching programmes, including children's tennis coaching, ANZ Hot Shots tennis, teen squads, private lessons, and adult tennis coaching. The majority of classes are conveniently conducted on location at local primary schools, with lesson times designed to accommodate parents' schedules. Morning lessons are often scheduled so that parents can drop their children off before work, while afternoon lessons and coaching programmes are usually held immediately after school for easy pick-up.
What sets tennis apart from other sports, according to Tennis For Kids, is its ability to promote total skill development. The sport helps children develop coordination skills, hand-eye coordination, total motor control, ball tracking and striking skills, as well as building strength, fitness, agility, and flexibility. Additionally, tennis is a sport that can be enjoyed by the whole family, allowing for shared experiences and quality time.
Tennis For Kids Coorparoo offers court hire for recreational use. The club provides general court hire information, emphasising that players enter and use the courts at their own risk. The condition of the court surface is left to the discretion of the hirer. Court bookings for coaching or commercial competitions are not permitted, as the courts are primarily for recreational use.
The club also prohibits the presence of alcohol, illegal substances, offensive items, weapons, sharp objects, and animals on or in the fenced premises.
For those interested in enrolling their child in tennis lessons or attending coaching programmes, more information can be found on the club's website. Tennis For Kids Coorparoo is committed to providing a safe and enjoyable environment for children to learn and excel in the sport of tennis.
