Our Competition & Performance Pathways are tennis programs designed specifically to meet the needs of more competitive juniors. Using the guidelines from Hot Shots modifications, players are challenged to develop their game to a competitive level that can then be taken into league and tournament play. Enrolments into these programs are by invitation only to maintain TennisHQ's appropriate levels of players and class sizes.

Performance Squads are for players who are focusing on tennis as a primary sport and are competing in the highest divisions in their age group.
Sessions will challenge students to perform under pressure, execute technical competencies and show tactical awareness and control. Tennis specific fitness and movement exercises accompany the hitting drills to complete a well rounded athletic foundation.
Most players at this level are undertaking private lessons, attending school training, league training and are committed to tennis. As such, enrolment into these classes are by invitation only.
