JUNIOR PROGRAMME

About us

The Wimbledon Club's Junior Tennis Programme has been designed to improve and develop players as efficiently and as effectively as possible.

 

With the target of optimising player progression we have created three areas within our programme to best suit players individual needs for their age and stage of development. 

​

All players looking to enrol within our programme will be subject to an assessment from one of the members of the team which will result in being assigned a ball colour and programme within our Programme Structure. 

Book your assessment today

During the summer period, assessments are only available by booking a day in the camp. After the camp session, our professional coaches will assess your child and recommend the most suitable programme.
