Junior Classes

Tennis in the teenage years becomes a space for growth, challenge, and self-discovery.

 

Our Junior Tennis Program is designed for players aged 12 and up, whether they’re continuing from our Kids Program or stepping onto the court for the first time. Here, every player finds a place to thrive, develop their game, and build a strong foundation for lifelong engagement with sport.

​

With personalised pathways, experienced coaching, and a nurturing environment, we help juniors unlock their potential both on and off the court. Whether your child dreams of competition or loves the rhythm of hitting a ball, our program adapts to their pace, goals, and passion.

​

We strongly encourage a full-season commitment (August to June/July, aligned with the Vaud school calendar) to allow for consistent growth, team bonding, and steady progress.
