Tennis at the Ocean Club
The Ocean Club is one of our top tennis centres with two resident British tennis coaches, available to coach groups or on a one to one basis - both adults and children. We also run social tennis throughout the week and a friendly mixed doubles tournament that is very popular.
There are 5 hard painted tennis courts, 2 of which are floodlit. Racquets and Balls are free of charge to hire.
Our Tennis Coaching Programme
We offer a number of coaching programmes endorsed by the Lawn Tennis Association and managed by the specialist tennis company Service Line. Tuition is available for complete beginners through to club and county level players and coaching can be provided in a group of balanced ability or on a one-to-one level for players aged 4 years upwards. All group coaching can be pre-booked in the UK and we would recommend that you book early as places are limited and very popular.
For those who prefer private coaching, we offer single lessons or a package of three lessons all of which are bookable in resort.
In all resorts we ensure there is tennis court time available for those wanting free play. We also arrange evening tennis socials and a not too serious weekly tournament. We can provide racquets and balls for tuition, social sessions and free play.
