The successful candidate will play a key role in the on-court delivery of high-quality coaching sessions for players aged 3 to 18 years of all ability levels and for providing input into the overall structure and design of the junior development programme. The coach will be responsible for driving participation of our junior teams in local tennis leagues and for encouraging and supporting participation, where appropriate, in LTA ratings tournaments.
The junior groups are run on weekdays (except Thursdays) from 4pm until 7pm. The role also involves the organisation and delivery of school holiday camps which generally run three days per week during all holidays except Christmas. The coach will also be required to support internal junior tournaments which are run on Sunday afternoons, 1pm to 4pm, once per month.

In addition to junior coaching, the club coach will be expected to support the provision of adult coaching as time progresses.
A minimum of 18 hours per week, with more hours potentially available if required.
