Adult Intensive Weekends
These sessions are currently running outdoors at our Clapham (Lambeth Academy) and Brockwell Park venues. These courses are great for those wanting to receive the coaching benefits offered through our 6 week courses in a compact 3 hour intensive format.
Beginner Intensive Course:
Learn all of the ‘Essential Tennis Techniques’ that will allow you to start improving your tennis quickly.
Forehands and Backhands – Full overview of technique is covered and reinforced through a variety of shadow, feeding and partner hitting drills.
Serve – Fundamental Technique is taught with players progressing through to their appropriate level of development.
If you’ve completed a couple of Beginners courses and feel ready to progress this is a good bridging course for you to move onto before hitting the full Improver level course. The goal of this course is to up-skill your rallying abilities and reinforce all of the forehand, backhand and serve technique that you learned during a beginners course.
More gameplay scenarios are also covered, to get you familiar with playing points and eventually matches.
As your confidence grows then our coaches also continue to provide specific individual feedback for each player so that they can progress forward at their own pace.
Improver / Intermediate Level Intensive Course:
Forehands and Backhands – We take you through more advanced swing shapes with an emphasis on developing topspin for more accuracy and consistency
Serve – Intermediate technique is covered using flat and slice serves with players progressed according to their appropriate level of development.
Gameplay, Scoring & Strategy – In the final 45 minutes players are given the chance to put everything together using different gameplay conditions.
Intermediate Advanced Level Intensive Course:
This course will aim to improve your groundstrokes by developing advanced swing shapes that allows you to hit with more spin, and become more consistent by covering more advanced footwork and balance skills.
We will introduce a more challenging serve motion to hit flat and spin serves more consistently. In the final 45 minutes we put these skills together together using intermediate/advanced gameplay scenarios.
