The first Saturday Junior coaching morning of the new season got off to a great start with blue skies and fine weather. The first session for 5 to 8 year olds was to improve tennis skills and have fun hitting some balls. The second session starting at 11.30 saw older juniors enjoying improving their tennis skills in a match situation.
Bill Dow, our Club Coach who runs the sessions described the weather as being “glorious” and that it was an excellent start to the season. These sessions run from April to October and are also open to non members.The details can be found by clicking here

February might seem very early to be discussing plans for summer tennis – but it is a key month in the local tennis calendar. Work starts in earnest when Town Green representatives attend both the Southport and Liverpool Tennis Group fixture meetings where our teams play league tennis. Then Clubs will host their own Committee meetings to organise events, purchase balls and agree court time for the season.
The first three confirmed dates are always first club night, coaching and our early season American Tournament and once we have these agreed it feels like the season is underway. This year the dates are
Coaching – usual format with Bill’s popular Saturday mornings starting 1st April
First Club Night – our curtain raiser for the season will be at 7pm on the 11th April
American Tournament – to be held at 2pm on Sunday 30th April
These dates have only just been announced and there will be plenty more information in the very near future.
