Junior competition
SHLTC has entered the majority of the junior teams into the AEGON Winter and Summer Leagues. These have proved a huge success and the juniors have benefited from the experience.
The club also holds regular competitions throughout the year, mainly at half terms. This competition is usually Timed Tennis (see the LTA website for more details). Timed Tennis is for all ages from Mini Tennis through to U18's depending on their tennis rating. In addition, matches are played during the week throughout the coaching programme to encourage all juniors to compete on a regular basis. This is further supported by the new monthly competition on Friday evenings between 5–7pm for all juniors (see below for more details).
SHLTC also works closely with Kent LTA and receives regular updates regarding local competition taking place at other clubs. Visit the Kent LTA website for entry details.
