Who it's for
Built for beginners, good for everyone

From age 5 up to teens, in private lessons or junior group lessons at the club. Helen specialises in young players who are brand new to tennis, and keeps things calm, fun and patient so nervous first-timers settle in quickly.
Under 8s
Helen also runs under 8s tennis at Killeshin Community Centre. It's a gentle first step into the game, and no club membership is needed.
Adults

My daughters have been going to tennis lessons with Helen since they were in infants. My eldest is now 11 and loves going to tennis. Helen has always encouraged them to do their best and step out of their comfort zone. They've grown in confidence and skill, and both have a great love of tennis thanks to Helen's patience and support.
I've never played before. Is this for me?
Yes. Helen specialises in complete beginners, both kids and adults, and never rushes anyone.
