Pay & Play Sessions

Pay & Play Sessions at Westway are aimed at children who are starting their journey in tennis. The major focus of these sessions is to fully develop fundamental skills such as sending, receiving, coordination, agility and speed. Children will also learn appropriate technique and tactics.  Once players have developed their skills and confidence in the sport to an appropriate level, they will then be encouraged to move on to the Club Pathway or Developmental Performance Pathway.

Club Sessions

Club sessions provide a structured environment with a consistent group of players working on fundamental technique and tactics. Each weekly session covers a tactical theme with individual technical teaching and children will be encouraged to participate in tournament play.These squads require a minimum of a term's commitment.

Developmental Performance Sessions

Developmental Performance Sessions offer a competitive and structured environment with a consistent group of dedicated players working through progressive drills, points and tactical play. Each weekly session covers a tactical theme with individual technical teaching points. 

Children must participate in tournament play, achieve a relevant national rating and ranking and have a minimum attendance of 80% for all sessions. These squads require a minimum of a term's commitment and attendance of three sessions per week.
