Matchplay sessions

Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays 1.00-3.00pm

At Everyball one of our fundamental beliefs is that 'coaching is not the sport' and therefore we feel it is vital to provide some linked match-play sessions to our morning camps so, hand on heart, we can truly say we are helping develop 'players of the game'!. 

Our match-play sessions are once again run by one of our experienced coaches and children are guaranteed a number of competitive matches over a 2 hr period against similar level players.  Coaches will help players thrive in the (safe) competitive environment introducing players to simple goal setting techniques with pre and post match discussions.  Where possible, these matches will count towards a player's World Tennis Number (WTN).

• To get your WTN for free just follow this link: https://www.lta.org.uk/compete/wtn-rankings/world-tennis-number/
• Players will be obliged to use appropriate colour ball for competition, following these general guidelines:
  • 8&U Red ball,
  • 9&U - Orange ball,
• For those children booking option 2 above, please ensure you bring a packed lunch on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.

Multi Skills and Team Building Afternoons

Tuesday and Friday Afternoons 1.00 - 3.00pm

Our Multi-skills & Team Building afternoon sessions run on Tuesdays and Fridays between 1.00-3.00pm and can be booked as a stand alone session or in addition to our morning junior and mini tennis camps.

During this session we use a number of different sports and physical activities (Ultimate Frisbie, Table Tennis, Basketball, Futsal, Uni-hock, Quick-cricket, Net-ball, Outdoor Jenga to name a few!) to develop child and teen athletic coordination, motor skills and general fitness whilst lacing in & emphasising what it takes to become a 'great team player and contributor'.

For those children booking option 2 above, please ensure you bring a packed lunch on Tuesdays and Fridays.
