Hi Everyone

Happy new year, I hope you have all had a lovely Christmas and are looking forward to lots of tennis & squash fun in 2025!
 
Junior TENNIS Club Night is back starting next Friday, 7th February at 4pm for our younger players and 5pm for our older, and we’ve got an exciting term lined up! This year, we’re spicing things up with some fun Friday night tournaments, our first one kicks off on Friday, 7th March. Let us know what you think, we’d love to hear your feedback!
 
The coaching programme is up and running, but there are still a few spaces available. If you’re keen to join a class, reach out to Brian, and for our competitive players out there, Surrey junior leagues will be starting soon— We will be in touch soon with details if you’re interested!
 
As the weather warms up, don’t forget to get your box league matches played. We can’t wait to see who makes it to the finals later this term! And speaking of tournaments, we’re already gearing up for the main event, our junior club tournament starting towards the end of March with finals day Saturday 28th June for many of our junior events, alongside the adults. We’d love to see as many juniors as possible entering. Last year’s finals day was a fantastic event, and you all made it extra special! Look out for tournament and entry details soon.
 
We’re also excited to be hosting some clinics led by LTA Tutor, Andy Knibbs, a global facilitator for the Inner Game of Tennis. Andy will guide you through the transformative principles of the Inner Game, helping you unlock your potential and enhance performance both on and off the court. These sessions are perfect for players of all levels who want to sharpen their focus, build confidence, and develop a more intuitive approach to tennis. Keep an eye out for more details and upcoming clinic dates!
