Matchplay is part of our Junior Coaching Programme, with the main aim to help more children play in more matches in a structured and organised manner.
Every month we will run Saturday Matchplay for U8/U9s, U10s and U11-18s. These matchplay sessions are aimed at players on our program who are or potentially, or will be playing competitions at and outside the club. The next Matchplay Sessions are TBC. Children have to be members and they are invite only sessions.
Elly Shearman Tennis Coaches will attend a number of local tournaments to support and guide your children through the tournament experience.
Parents will need to enter their child(ren), but once at the tournament our coaches will guide the children so that parents can sit back and enjoy watching their children play. Again, we will expect our juniors who are able to play matches to be entering two tournaments during a long term, and more if they are aiming for County Level.
We want to create a coach supported feel at the club where our juniors get consistent match play and for our coaches to see where they can improve. We do expect our juniors to participate in our monthly match play Saturdays.
We believe this new way of attending matchplay sessions and competing in local tournaments engages more children in the tournament structure for tennis. It also helps guide parents and children, whilst giving matchplay opportunities at the club, to develop confidence in the match court and for most age groups therefore having more match play over a term.
Elly Shearman Coaches will attend the following local tournaments to support and guide your children through the tournament experience. Subject to change depending on entries for tournaments.
Next Tournaments will be confirmed ASAP.
If there are other tournaments that you are attending, please let our coaches know as they also might be available to attend.

If you have lost property at the club please note items are taken to a charity shop on the last Friday of the month.
