Tennis Lessons - 2024

 Youth and Adult Coaching Camps, Clinics & Programs 2024  (BOOKING FORMS ARE BELOW, ON THIS PAGE)

Tennis is a growing sport on the Sunshine Coast in BC and the SRC Tennis Club is at the very heart of a growing tennis scene. Coaching is open to anyone interested in tennis.  We welcome non-members.

As a Community Club we believe it’s important we offer our Sunshine Coast BC youth the opportunity to discover the game of tennis or improve their skills – they’re the future!  But we also offer coaching for adults too - whether you've just moved to the Coast and want to join a club for regular tennis, have just picked up a racquet after way too long or just want to brush up on your skills and techniques, then you've come to the right place.

Coaching Programs - these take place indoors at our community indoor tennis centre at Suncoast Racquet Club, 6000 Lighthouse Avenue, Sechelt, V0N 3A5 (next to Kinnikinnick School). 

We supply all tennis equipment. Participants just need to bring a pair of clean indoor tennis or running shoes to change into.

Tennis Camps - Spring & Summer - these take place in Sechelt (indoors at SRC Tennis Club).  In summer we also hold Youth Tennis Camps outdoors in Gibsons at the Dougall Park tennis courts.

Coaching team - Year-round our Club Coach, Jacques Joyal, and his Assistants are at the centre of our coaching program – Jacques is on hand to help whether you want to be coached one-on-one or in small groups.  For individual coaching he can be contacted at: 604-741-7858.

SRC Youth Tennis Scholarship Fund and a special Youth Tennis Endowment Fund

These are designed to help families with the cost of coaching here at the SRC Tennis Club and for progressing their young players through to more tennis in BC.  To find out more about how to apply for funds - please email our Club Chair, Tamara F. Jacobsen, at chair@srctennis.ca and she will guide you through the process.
