ELSTREE LAWN TENNIS CLUB
Our coaching team are available for group sessions and private lessons. Please note that they are not employed by the club and decide their own fees and activity types.
​
You do not need to be a member to take part in organised coaching by one of our named club coaches, but you will pay more for a session, as the coach must pay a court fee on your behalf.
Non-members, you do not need to pay a guest/visitor fee to have coaching by our named coaches, but you will need to pay a visitor/guest fee to play with a hitting partner

The Club offers the opportunity for 5 – 13 year olds to play tennis in our Mini Tennis coaching programme.
Please note:
Young players must come appropriately dressed for the weather conditions. Any child inappropriately dressed will be asked to stay in the Clubhouse in order to avoid injury / illness. On sunny days sunscreen should be applied before the child enters the club. It is most important that players always bring a drink with them.
Parents should escort young players to the courtside at the start of each session and collect them from courtside at the end of each session. Coaches can only be responsible for juniors for the duration of the coaching session.
