What is Adult Coaching?
Our adult coaching pathways were designed to offer all standard and age adults an option of either a cardio workout or a technical / tactical based class. Our programs progress from beginner to social, intermediate to advanced levels and finally to Vets players classes as tennis is a lifetime journey. Adult beginners start in our TENNIS XPRESS program using 75% low compression green balls used to make the game easier and slower, enabling first timers a chance to engage in longer rallies, making the game even more fun, before moving on to the more advanced programs. If desired, adults may then like to compete in our social and low grade club competition programs. If you like we can also offer coaching to your entire team to make sure all players are on the same "page".
Private & Semi-Private Lessons
Futures Tennis also offer private classes seven days a week to adults to either supplement, or extend, existing players programs and development. Private and semi-private classes are the best way to learn if you consider yourself as: a players who needs time to work on specific individual weaknesses, a players who lacks confidence and would prefer to learn one on one, is an advanced players who want to add to existing programs, is a beginner player who want to fast track their improvement, or, is a player who prefers to play with a friend in a semi-private class.
Adult Group Coaching
Adult Group Coaching is conducted at different mid-week morning times. The most popular coaching time is Friday from 9.15 am at East Malvern Tennis Club. Players are placed into a similar standard and learn the basis technically and tactical components of all strokes. Our Tennis Express program is for beginner players in group adult lesson using a green ball. You can book in for a term or a discount semester option as well. Some players book in by themselves and are placed into a group whilst others join as a team, or, with a group of friends. Whichever way you join you'll have fun, gain fitness and improve your game.
Cardio Tennis
Cardio is the new way to play tennis! It is not tennis coaching. It is a workout on the tennis court to music with fun, fitness based drills and activities for all players and standards. These group sessions run for a term or discount semester. Emphasis is on drilling and having a gut crunching work out where you hit heaps of balls and burn up calories. Although Cardio has no coaching element you will hit many more balls in these work outs than you would if simply practicing. Players can organise their own group of friends for 6 for 45 min, 8 for 60 min or join an existing group.
Mums & Tots
The Mums & Tots Program is designed for Mums with young kids to get back into Tennis and bring their Tots [kinder age] along for a go as well! The program offers discount rates for the Tots. Tots do a FUNdamental Motor Skill program with a coach while the Mums are put through a term program of "Getting back into Tennis" with emphasis on learning the basics, developing fitness and general match play.
Team Coaching
Is your team under-performing, or perhaps, not jelling, or do some players not understand their role on the doubles court? Many ladies, night comps and adult pennant teams choose to participate in coaching as a "team" and therefore set up their own group of four for 60 min. Not only is it more fun learning as a team but it motivates everybody in the team to work together. Call us to organise a term of classes dealing with e.g. doubles match play, or anything, you believe your team needs to improve.
Private House
If you have your own court we will come to you. We conduct classes seven days a week, therefore we can organise a coach to attend your place at most times that you wish.
Corporate & School Days
We organise corporate and school function days where your event may hire the courts and attend a coaching session. In the City of Stonnington Municipality, tennis is the most popular sport people play. Some ideas are: an organised round robin, a Cardio fitness workout event or simple a social tennis days for team building. Give us a call to organise an appropriate day and time.
