Goolwa Tennis Club

Juniors

Goolwa Tennis Club is accepting registrations for all players from beginners and onwards.

We currently have Division’s 1 – 6.  Juniors can start from the age of 6 years up to the age of 17.

Training is on Tuesday and Thursdays from 4pm onwards.

Tennis SA accredited Club Coach Tony Rehn will be at the courts every Thursday to work with all the Juniors to help develop technique and ball skills.

Progression through different divisions for Juniors depends on their level of development and capabilities, our Junior development co-ordinator and our Coach works closely with the Juniors to ensure they are placed in the correct division according to their ability and experience.

Beginners – Green Ball  : play with a modified low compression tennis ball. This gives young players more time to develop their shot making and encourages better tennis strokes and rallies.  Matches are still played on full size tennis courts.

Yellow Ball competition is the final phase for juniors having progressed from the Green ball phase. Full compression tennis balls are used.

Summer season runs from October to March with no matches played over Christmas holidays.

Matches are played around the Fleurieu Peninsular as part of the Great Southern Tennis Association.
