Match Play and Fixtures for children aged 7-15 years

Tennis For Kids delivers a range of Hot Shots Leagues and Teen Tennis fixture competitions at The Tennis Club. These programs are the ideal way to provide children with a chance to use the skills and technique they learn in coaching, helping generate rapid improvement and a stronger love for the game. Tennis For Kids fixtures focus on participation, sportsmanship and having fun. All programs are supervised by professional coaches, on hand to teach and guide children every step of the way.


Even if your child has never played a proper match before, friendly coaches ensure they don’t feel out of place, teaching children to score and walking them through how to play a proper match.

Orange Ball Hot Shots League

(Age Guide 7-9 years)​

Played on a 3/4 size court, with low compression orange balls, Tennis For Kids Orange Ball Fixtures are the perfect introduction to match play for your child. Guided by our qualified coaches, children will be taught how to play and umpire a proper match. In the early weeks the children miss lots of serves, rallies are short and scores are forgotten by both players and umpires. However, over a full term, the improvement is dramatic and wonderful to see!

Each week children play 1 singles match, 1 doubles matches and umpire or ball boy/girl 1 match. All matches are timed to ensure fairness.
