Hi Team Stony Tennis,

I was thrilled to see such an excellent turnout at our Starter Tennis Tournament last weekend and what a brilliant day it was for everyone involved.

Our 8&U and 10&U events were full of enthusiasm, determination, and impressive tennis. 12 young players took to the courts, showcasing strong rallies, great teamwork, and a wonderful spirit of sportsmanship from start to finish. The round-robin format proved to be a great success, offering every participant plenty of match experience and the chance to apply what they’ve been learning in coaching sessions.

Congratulations to our winners:

 8&U Champions:

• Racket Group – Winner: Matteo | Runner-up: Naomi
• Ball Group – Winner: Neel | Runner-up: Ekveera

 10&U Champions:

• Winner: Ethan | Runner-up: Sai

A huge well done to all of our players for making the event such an enjoyable and exciting occasion. The confidence, focus, and positive attitude shown throughout the day were fantastic to see.

I would also like to extend a big thank you to Coach Toby for running the events and the parents for your support on the day. Your encouragement makes a real difference!

Our new format of timed matches and the “score as many points as possible” approach received excellent feedback, helping players stay engaged, think tactically, and keep the rallies flowing. We will continue to build on this structure to provide fun competitions that support player development at every level.

Looking ahead, we have more exciting Starter Tennis Tournaments coming up, with dates now live on our website. We’ll also be introducing new challenges and match-play opportunities designed to help players grow in confidence, learn match etiquette, and put their training into practice in a friendly competitive setting.

We can’t wait to see you all back on court soon.

Hi Team Stony Tennis,

What an incredible summer it’s been at our MORE THAN JUST TENNIS CAMPS!

From the very first day, the club has been buzzing with energy, laughter, and some amazing tennis. Our camps take a lot of planning, from creating fun-filled schedules to designing activities that challenge and inspire, and this year, it all came together better than ever.

What Made This Summer So Special?

• Coach Richard said, “I was blown away by how quickly the kids picked up new skills. Many went from barely rallying to playing full games by the end of the week – the progress was phenomenal!”
• Coach Toby added, “Seeing the kids gain confidence, try new things and support each other is what makes coaching so rewarding. The friendships formed on court are as special as the tennis itself.”

Parents also shared their thoughts:

“The camp was fantastic! My child came home each day tired but happy, with so much to talk about. Huge thanks to all the coaches.” – Sarah, Parent

And from the kids:

“I loved the games and learning new shots. Can I come back next week?” – Ella, Age 9

Many of our summer camp players have gone on to join our weekly ACE Programme, continuing their journey and taking their tennis to the next level… some even competing in club and county tournaments!

I’d like to give a huge thank you to everyone including parents, players, and our dedicated team of coaches and assistants for making this summer unforgettable.
