ADULT OPEN COURT SESSIONS
Tennis can be an amazing workout if you have experienced coaches who can make a session intensive and fast-paced (and also fun).
WHAT ARE OPEN COURT SESSIONS?
Open Court sessions are a 75-minute mix of singles, doubles, rallying and technique work for players from intermediate to advanced standard. All players are grouped according to their level to provide an even standard whilst playing and competing.
​
Five and Ten session packages are available for Open Court sessions which provide flexibility (ie. you only pay for lessons you attend).
​
All classes are personally conducted by Master Club Professional Shane Scrutton and Club Professional Dave King.
​
There are two variations of Open Court sessions:
​
OPEN COURT INTERMEDIATE LEVEL
​
OCS (intermediate level) is aimed at social tennis players of any gender who have had some tennis exposure and wouldn't consider themselves world-beaters, but are certainly not novices. They are players looking for a fun, intensive and social tennis program where they can improve their backhand (or forehand) and fitness, and have a good time doing it.
They are also looking for coaches who can make a session interesting and even competitive and who will focus on what they need to work on - without getting too technical!
​
OPEN COURT ADVANCED LEVEL
​
OCS Advanced is for social players who are looking for a program that will challenge them - they are players looking for an intensive, fast-tempo (and social) tennis program where the drills and competitive games give them a real tennis workout that, at the end of the day, helps them become beter tennis players.
They are also looking for coaches who, with a quick suggestion or analytical eye, can give them some tips which they can integrate quickly
(without getting bogged down in the detail).
