🎾 TERM 1 TENNIS PROGRAMS – NOW OPEN 🎾
📍 Sandhurst Tennis | Starts this Wednesday

We’ve just finalised our Term 1 coaching schedule and are excited to launch our new Tennis Australia HotShots program — making it cheaper and more accessible than ever for families to get involved in tennis.

HotShots is an entry-level, participation-based pathway, delivered in an Auskick-style format that is:
✔️ Coach-led
✔️ Community & family focused
✔️ Highly active and game-based
✔️ Built around official Tennis Australia lesson plans

We strongly promote tennis as a family sport and encourage parent and grandparent involvement. To help keep HotShots affordable and fun, parent helpers are needed and encouraged within the groups, working under coach direction at all times.

TERM 2 ANNOUNCEMENT – Glow Tennis Is Coming!

With daylight savings ending, we’re excited to trial a bold new initiative at Sandhurst Tennis:

All coaching sessions after 5pm will now run with NO court lighting… and GLOW-IN-THE-DARK tennis balls, racquets, and wristbands.

We believe this new sensory training method will help players:
• Focus purely on the ball
• Develop elite-level night vision
• And look super cool while doing it

Players are encouraged to wear white or neon for max glow.
Spots will be limited due to the number of glow balls available.

Go to bit.ly/sandhurst10s to register your interest today!

We are so excited that it's Australian Open time (our favourite time of the year).

We are running some AO Holiday Programs for kids from 9:00am to 11:00am on Tuesday (14th & 21st) & Thursday (16th & 23rd) at the Sandhurst courts during this January's Australian Open. The cost is $25 for the 2 hours.

PLUS FOR THE ADULTS… come and join us for some Cardio Tennis sessions on Wednesday (15th & 22nd) evenings from 6:00-6:45pm. The cost is $20 for the session.

For all bookings please go to bit.ly/holiday_clinic.

Or you can contact me for any enquiries.

We look forward to seeing you on court over this summer of tennis.

Matt Carroll
