Holiday clinics are suitable for all ages and skill levels, as kids are divided into groups according to age and ability level. Our tennis drills are designed to create an enjoyable environment, however our key focus is for students to improve their technical and tactical skills. We also run a fun based tournament during the clinic.
Snacks are provided for all participants, so all you need to bring along is a racquet, a hat, and water bottle.
