WAIRARAPA & HUTT VALLEY
Train and compete on European red clay.
We're based at Dry River Tennis Centre, two Italian clay courts just five minutes from Martinborough, tucked into the Wairarapa countryside. With on-site accommodation, players from right across New Zealand can now train and compete on true European clay without leaving the country.
We work closely with Wairarapa Tennis, and support a number of clubs and schools throughout the region as tennis continues to grow here. We also have a junior performance programme based at Mitchell Park in Lower Hutt working with some of the most promising Hutt Valley, Kapiti and Wellington players.
We run the performance tennis programme for the Trinity Schools — Rathkeale College, St Matthew's Collegiate and Hadlow Preparatory School. Their students train on our clay at Dry River and on hard courts at Masterton Tennis Centre, the same surfaces the world's top players compete on. It's a genuine pathway for junior competitors, with sports scholarships available to those who qualify.

Programme guide
Coaching
A clear pathway from first swing to tournament tennis. Pick the stage that fits your age, ability and goals — we'll take it from there.
Development
Red, Orange and Green Ball lessons for our youngest and newest players. The focus here is on fun first, while quietly building the technique, coordination and confidence they'll need later on.
Competitive
Bronze, Silver and Gold squads for juniors ready to start competing. Expect match play, tactical work, and lessons that raise the intensity as players progress.
Performance
Our Tournament Squads and the Trinity Performance Programme, built for committed competitors. Training here is intensive — tactical, physical, and geared toward real results.
Adult
Social groups, technical clinics and private lessons for adults at any level. Whether you're picking up a racquet again or sharpening your game, there's a spot for you.
Our private venue
Dry River Tennis Centre
Established 2022
Our home courts in the Wairarapa — a quiet, focused space where every session is shaped around the player in front of us. We also coach at partner clubs and schools across the region, so flexibility is never an issue.
