Match Play / Fixture Leagues

Tennis For Kids Match Play (fixtures) are a great way to provide children with regular practise and a friendly introduction to competition. Fixtures give children a chance to use the skills and technique they learn in coaching, helping generate rapid improvement and a stronger love for the game. All Tennis For Kids fixtures are supervised by professional coaches, on hand to teach children how to score and keep the focus on participation, sportsmanship and provide plenty of encouragement
