Our Competition is aimed at children who are beginning to play the sport and have developed an understanding of tennis through Hot Shots coaching, Community Play or at their local school.
Players have a chance to test their skills against similar level players and know what it feels like to be under scoreboard pressure and how to cope in low to moderate pressure environments that are also fun to play in.
The competition is a unique competition designed to give orange stage players the opportunity to gain valuable regular match play experience. The competition format is fun and innovative and provides a great platform for players socially as well as technically and tactically to fast track a orange Stage players development.
The Competition is a Singles Only competition, so it is simple to get involved. All balls court players are eligible.

WINTER IS COMING
Winter is coming and it’s important to prepare yourself for the cold weather ahead. As the temperature starts to drop and the days become shorter, it’s time to start thinking about your winter wardrobe. Many people think that winter clothing is only about keeping warm, but it’s also about staying stylish and comfortable. So, it’s important to wear proper clothes during this season.
It’s important to dress appropriately for the activities you’ll be doing in the winter (e.gspray jacket, beanie, warm water in drink bottles etc).
If you’ll be spending a lot of time outdoors, make sure to wear proper winter sports clothing, such as a waterproof jacket and pants, and insulated gloves. If you’re just running errands around town, a warm coat, scarf, and hat will suffice. Remember to always check the weather forecast before heading out and dress accordingly.
WINTER TERMS
Sessions may from time to time be cancelled due to poor weather. Rain or extreme heat. An sms cancellation message is automatically sent to the players nominated mobile to inform of the weather cancellation. If no sms is received please assume lessons are running as normal.
Your tennis coach who is onsite at the venue has the ability to assess court surfaces and make decisions on lessons cancellations. Your Coach will inform you ASAP, but sometimes the rain will come as the lesson starts, or 5 mins after the start of a lesson, so we do request understanding for parents, when the weather is not so kind.
A lesson and court status update will always be posted before school pick-up, to save busy parents time. As always in the event of a weather-related cancellation, your coach will send an sms cancellation to your designated mobile number.
We trust posting on our social media channels will hep busy parents save time.
