Raphi's Tennis Academy

Kids Tennis Court

The Tennis Academy consistently follows the Swiss Tennis Kids Tennis High School Program as well as the worldwide ITF “Play & Stay” campaign.
Children learn tennis in a playful, varied and age-appropriate way.

Rookies (3–6 years)

Our Rookies learn the basics of tennis in a fun and child-friendly environment.
A strong focus is placed on motor skills development.

Training structure:

• 50% tennis
• 50% coordination, mobility & ball skills

Kids (7–10 years)

Smaller rackets, slower balls and reduced court sizes allow for fast learning progress and help children become familiar with the game of tennis in a lively way.

Juniors (11–18 years)

In age- and level-appropriate small groups, our Juniors experience balanced training sessions.
Technical and tactical development is just as important to us as playing points, match practice and fostering enjoyment of the game.

Course formats:

• Group lessons (2–4 children)
• Private lessons (1 child + coach)
