Goodwins Tennis Academy in Australia

Goodwins Tennis Academy in Australia

Coaching is the most important parameter and that is the reason we offer three different forms of coaching.

Private tuition- If you require more hitting time and extra attention, we provide private lessons to our students. Here we analyse your strengths and weaknesses then we thoroughly develop your technique to provide you with the necessary skills needed to play the game.

Group lessons- Classes are designed depending on certain factors such as age and ability. Goodwinâ??s Tennis Academy is looking into implementing the Tennis Australia kids starter program called â??Hot Shotsâ?? which is aimed at kids between the ages of 5-12. Through the use of modified equipment such as low compression balls and smaller size courts kids learn to serve, rally and score in a game that is appropriate to there level of ability. There are three stages of progression called red, orange and green. After each level has been accomplished the ball compression and court dimensions will progress the players skill level which prepares them to play on a full size court with traditional yellow balls.

Squad training â?? These particular sessions are designed for the competition level player with an emphasis not only on technique but also tactics. As coaches it is our job to teach our pupils how to adapt to the various scenarios they will face during a match such as counter acting different playing styles, weather conditions, court surfaces and learning to implement the correct shot at the right time in different situations. Other aspects we touch on are diet, fluid intake, fitness and footwork.
