1-to-1 Tennis Coaches

No verified coaches in this discipline yet

A good 1-to-1 tennis coach does what a team session can't: all the attention on one player, with the session built around what they specifically need to fix. Private tennis coaching in the UK typically costs £40–£70 per hour, and sessions usually run on hardcourts and indoor centres year-round, with grass and clay availability in summer. Coaching normally starts from around 5 with mini tennis, moving to full court by 9–10.

Sessions usually cover technical stroke work — forehand, backhand, serve and volley, match-play patterns and tactical decision-making and footwork and split-step timing drills. For juniors, ask that a coach uses age-appropriate ball and racket sizing rather than pushing full-size gear too early.

Tennis coaching FAQ

How much does a 1-to-1 tennis coach cost?

Typically £40–£70 per hour in the UK. Coaches with academy, county or international backgrounds sit at the top of that range, and block bookings of 5 or 10 sessions usually come at a discount.

How do I choose a tennis coach?

• Look for LTA Accredited+ status — it's the standard baseline • Ask whether they can support the LTA rating pathway if that's a goal • For adults, check whether they'll focus on the parts of your game you actually want to fix
