Partnership Opportunity

Creating Tennis Community – Working Together!

Are you a tennis operator in Canberra or in the ACT region.  Tennis Canberra is the Capital’s tennis brand and we welcome operators to join under the Tennis Canberra banner.

Why would you join with Tennis Canberra?  Tennis Canberra is not a tennis academy it is a brand that represents the Canberra Tennis Community.  It reaches to not just players at a Tennis Canberra venue but the entire territory. As the brand grows whoever is a part of this movement will ultimately reap the rewards of the teams successes.

How we can help you:

  • Marketing and Advertising: Tennis Canberra in number 1 in organic search engine hits for any tennis related searches in Canberra.
  • Resources: Many coaches are limited to the professional staff and assistant coaches.  Tennis Canberra have a coaching database to maximise coaching programs
  • Database: Our tennis community extends all over Canberra. With more venues, coaches and options our players will continue to love the support and we want to give them the best option available.  If we are able to promote your services we would be happy to help grow the community with your resources.
  • Flexibility: We invite all major stakeholders to help mould the Tennis Canberra brand.  Tennis Canberra respects everyones ideas and aspirations.  We are open to new ideas and directions.

We don’t like competing with other tennis coaches and we always want to work with them to grow the sport of tennis.  As a sport tennis is already competing with many other sports and the more we work together as a community the larger the sport can be. If you are interested in collaborating please get in touch, we have a lot of work to do and we would love you to join the ride!

Our professional coaching team is built off energy, hard work and passion. We respect everyones lifestyle, goals and aspirations. Most tennis academies have a hierarchy with the Head Coach calling the shots. Initially this is great for the development of coaching principals and teaching methods, however this practice limits the growth of the young coach as it does not empower the individual.

I was the coach that wasn’t able to explore, I stopped learning and my coaching really suffered . The team would go on court for a session then all head home – to do it again the next day.  This is not why I coached and almost gave the game away. Things changed I went out on my own and experienced many coaching environments. Now I want to help others improve and become great people not just tennis coaches.

Our family philosophy is everything at  Tennis Canberra. Our coaches work on projects together and hangout with our players both on and off the court.

I give the challenge to those out there who have a passion for tennis. Whether you want to teach casually or make it a permanent fixture, our tennis family can empower you to reach any coaching or life goals. We have opportunities for those who want to manage a tennis club to those wanting to learn this rewarding trade.

Our experience coaches will act as a mentor plus note any creative ideas you may have. At the end of the day we work as a team to build a tennis community we all can be apart of.
