Hot Shots

Tennis Hot Shots is Tennis Australia's program for kids. Smaller courts, lighter racquets and low-compression balls mean children rally and play points from their very first session, then progress through the ball colours as their skills grow.

Good to know

How the term works

Yes. Our main coaching programs are based on group lessons as they are fun, engaging, and cost-effective. However, individual, private, or semi-private coaching may be arranged directly with club coaches during group lessons or by visiting the main office.

Yes, you can! At least four players are needed to create a private group session.

For juniors: all programs run each week. If inclement weather occurs, DTC coaches will run a modified program indoors. For adults: if sessions are cancelled, the DTC aims to notify you by email. If a lesson has started and is cancelled within the first 40 minutes, you are entitled to another session at no cost.

No. If your session lands on a public holiday, you are welcome to attend another similar session during the week.

For juniors: programs run on a Tasmanian school term basis and booking is for the full term (pro-rated if you join late). For adults: programs typically run in 5-week blocks, also pro-rated for mid-term starts.

Yes. All our coaches are qualified Tennis Australia coaches. They ensure you are playing with others of the same level. All staff have valid Working With Vulnerable People and police checks.
