1-to-1 Tennis Coaches in Eastbourne

Private 1-to-1 tennis coaching in Eastbourne typically costs between £40 and £70 per hour. Coaches with academy or international coaching experience sit at the top of that range. Block bookings of 5 or 10 sessions almost always come with a discount — ask about it when you enquire.

Sessions typically run on hardcourts and indoor centres year-round, with grass and clay availability in summer — around Eastbourne that includes Hampden Park, Princes Park and Eastbourne Sports Park, plus school and club sites when the coach has an arrangement in place. Eastbourne Borough FC at Priory Lane, Devonshire Park hosts the Rothesay International tennis event, and the local tennis coaching scene is genuinely strong as a result and Eastbourne Rovers Athletic Club at the Sports Park track. If your player has a preferred venue, mention it in your enquiry — CoachSpot coaches list the venues they can travel to, and many will meet you at your local club or park.

Any coach working 1-to-1 with under-18s in the UK should hold an enhanced DBS check and a current safeguarding certificate. On CoachSpot both are mandatory — a coach's profile can't go live without them, and the verified badge on the profile means we've seen and reviewed the certificates directly. For juniors, ask that a coach uses age-appropriate ball and racket sizing rather than pushing full-size gear too early.

• 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 On CoachSpot you can filter by Eastbourne and by tennis, read reviews from other local families, and message a coach before booking a trial session.
