Optima's coaching programmes is based at Lymm Tennis Club,Brookfield Road in Lymm Cheshire. Individual or group lessons are available monday to Saturday.

We aim to create a disciplined environment that encourages fun, fair play and competition. A Directive approach combined with Guided Discovery techniques facillitate good learning retention & allows players to develop organically, at a pace that they are comfortable with.

Coaching is Games Based where technique is taught in a tactical context. Children especially, benefit from this structured approach that promotes self-discovery through carefully selected drills and games. Go to the 'Junior Coaching' link above for more information on the coaching schedule, tournaments, Club Night & Holiday Camps.

Most of the sessions are for children aged between four & sixteen but adults are also well catered for. There are sessions for all abilities, five days a week. The groups are up to a maximum of twelve & it's important that you book in advance online for these sessions as they are often over subscribed.
