BOOKING COACHING SESSIONS

All our coaching sessions are ‘Book, Pay and Play’ and must be booked in advance to secure your place and to ensure that not too many players turn up with our limited court space.

To book, simply contact the coaching team – 01424 421451 – E-mail

There are minimum numbers detailed below for each session. If the session is not going to run on a particular day, we will let you know 24 hours in advance.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT ADULT BEGINNER / RUSTY RACKETS

Rusty Rackets

Rusty Rackets September 2011

An easy and comfortable introduction to the game for starter players and for rusty rackets players who haven’t played in a while and want to brush up on the basics.

We will cover basic technique, scoring, tactics and etiquette with the aim of players having the ability and confidence to join in intermediate level sessions.

We will work at a pace to suit you, so you can take as long as you need to feel happy with your basic level of play.

SUNDAY MORNING CLUB PLAY

The courts are now booked out for Club Play from 10:00am -1:00pm on Sundays for Club Play and Wealden matches. Please check for home matches (there aren’t many) on the website before turning up to mix in on  a Sunday morning to avoid a wasted journey! The Club Play is a turn up and play, not a coaching session.

Sundays 10:00am-1:00pm

For intermediate / team level

Just Turn Up and Play for Members and Non-Member guests (£2 extra per session)

We are looking into the possibility of setting up a local online doubles league so that friendly matches could be played, possibly making use of the Sunday morning slot and giving Sedlescombe players the chance to meet players from Amherst and The Green. If you like this idea, please get in touch with us and if we get enough interest, we’ll take action!

 

JUNIOR COACHING

Please Note: We are sorry to report that, due to family pressures caused by caring for Pete’s eighty-seven year old mum, we are having to postpone the continuation of our junior programme for the foreseeable future. We recommend the extremely popular junior programme at Amherst LTC in Hastings until such time as our circumstances change. Thanks for your understanding. We are both still involved in the junior coaching at Amherst – to find out more, visit www.6lovetenniscoaching.co.uk.
