Coaching Opportunities
What do we need to provide to help you develop your tennis skill?
2004 Situation
We have very successful coaching sessions, which are open to all members. In the most part we have been able to accommodate most people most of the time. The key factors again are trying to keep the coaching groups small, in similar ability groups, with administration and charges to each person fair and manageable.
From the survey it was found that most people were happy with the level of coaching opportunities and we would maintain current levels.
Response from Mark T (2004)
Mandy’s Coaching Sessions:
- A notification of coaching sessions is sent out to each member with a closing date to give everyone a chance of participating. It is not organised on a first come first served basis as this could be unfair to those people not on Email.
- If the sessions are over subscribed, groups may have to alternate to allow as many people as possible to be included. Preference is given to members who haven’t had coaching recently.
- Each group will be made up of a similar standard of no more than 4 people.
- If a player does not have a suitable group to join he/she will be offered either a block of one hour or half hour sessions individually.
- Full payment will be required at the first session and will be calculated at £20 per hour (at present) split between the number of players times the number of weeks.
- If a player has to miss a session it is advisable to get a replacement.
Details of the next blocks of coaching sessions with Mandy N are sent out to all members. If you are interested but haven’t applied yet, please contact Sue T to find out about availability.
Current Situation
"Mandy N still provides excellent coaching opportunities which are usually well subscribed.
New coach, Jon H, is building up his junior squads and is available for adult coaching too.
Newly qualified Tennis Assistant Doris N. works with the minis on some afternoons."
