St George's Hill Lawn Tennis Club

Meet your Active Away host, coaching team and fellow players before your standalone five-hour clinic begins. Each day follows a doubles programme designed by Jamie Murray, with up to 24 players across four natural grass courts.

Prepare for five hours of tennis with a focused physical warm up. You will get moving, raise your heart rate and work on the balance and compact movement needed on natural grass.

Move into your coaching group on one of four side-by-side natural grass courts. With no more than six players per coach and court, you will have time to practise, receive feedback and apply each theme.
