Tennis for fun A strong social core is the backbone to the club and a full range of adult coaching groups are run throughout the week with the emphasis on improving your tennis game whilst enjoying great company. The club is committed to ensuring access to tennis for all and so it operates a Pay to Play scheme for non-members. Competition at Thongsbridge For members wanting to play competitive tennis, an active representative team structure flourishes at the club. Club box leagues run all year for players of all abilities. There are a total of 6 mens, 6 ladies and a full range of junior and intermediate teams compete at local, regional and national league level. Junior development The future of tennis firmly falls on our young players and with over 500 children, across a range of ages, enrolled on coaching programmes it is no surprise that our younger members are a lively core to the club. Mini Tennis The junior development journey starts as early as 3 years old with Tiny Tots and progresses through Red, Orange and Green stages of LTA’s Mini Tennis programme. As part of our outreach programme coaches visit all schools in the Holme Valley. Coaching The club benefits from a coaching team of 7, including a nationally recognised Head Performance coach, and provides high quality coaching tailored to meet your individual needs. The professionalism and approach of the coaching team has resulted in the club being awarded LTA performance status. Developing the stars of tomorrow Promising talent from Mini Tennis is fast tracked through a club futures structure aimed to provide the intensive technical and physical coaching needed to progress to county and national standard. The latest techniques are employed including full bio mechanical videa analysis and SAQ (speed, agility and quickness training).
