GIANT Tennis offers coaching programs suitable for all levels - focusing on movement, coordination, tennis fundamentals and techniques, delivered in a professional, yet fun and relaxed manner. All programs feature a (level-appropriate) match play component, as we endeavor to create competent and confident tennis players.
Our Little GIANTS (HotShots) lessons are a fun and inclusive program designed for children from 3 to 12 years of age, whereby they are guided through progressive developmental stages - from Blue, to Red, to Orange and Green Ball. The fundamentals of tennis are introduced through drills, games and match-play. With an underlying focus on fun and enjoyment, technical and tactical skills are developed in all areas of a students game as they progress through the levels.
For students aged 12 years and beyond (including adults) lessons are adapted to suit the level of the player and their individual tennis goals.
Whether it be a social group lesson with friends or a more advanced semi-private session, we always place an emphasis on correctly developing the core GIANT Tennis techniques in a fun and friendly environment.
