Juniors

Membership

We value our Junior players and enjoy seeing them develop their skills.  Juniors can get involved through coaching, interclub, junior club days and practicing at your convenince. 

Junior membership includes the following:

  • A court key for practice any time the courts are available (ie: not already booked for coaching, interclub matches, or BTC events) and the use our court booking system via our website
  • Junior club days to practice with other juniors (run during term 4 and term 1) - contact Coach Daniel to find out more
  • Discounted group coaching (see the coaching section for more details)
  • Affiliation to Tennis New Zealand and Tennis Northern

Junior members may bring a guest to the club free-of-charge to practice against, however the Junior must be on court playing, not standing on the sidelines watching others play.

Junior Hits

To build confidence in younger players we are offering a Junior Hits informal session with volunteer adults (we welcome your help).  Junior members or children of Senior members are able to join Junior Hits on Sunday 2.15pm to 3.00pm at no cost.   This only operates in good weather during Term 4 and Term 1.  To build the social fabric of the club, please feel free to bring a treat to share or a friend to try it out.

Coaching

Our most popular option for Juniors is the Tuesday afternoon lessons with our Club Coach.  If you are interested, please check out the Coaching page.

Interclub

 

Birkenhead Tennis Club is part of the Tennis Northern Association and plays in their Interclub competitions. 

There is an option to play Junior Interclub games on Saturdays in term 4 and term 1.  For our older junior members (15 and older) there is also the option to take part in Senior Interclub.
