THE PONDS
TENNIS ACADEMY
The Ponds Tennis Academy believes in training all students with the intention of playing tournament-level tennis. We believe the best way to improve a player’s ability is to train like a high-performance player.
We provide a tennis coaching service focused on creating tournament players around the Blacktown area.
Our Services: Tennis Lessons & Coaching
Our coaches are highly trained former players with 10+ years of playing experience. Finding commonality such as playing tournaments allows us to communicate effectively with a student.
A sense of trust is required between player and coach to tackle issues and improve upon mistakes.
- Experience: Nationally ranked coaches with a drive to improve your ability.
- Quality: Extensive knowledge and experience in a variety of drills, games, and fitness activities to improve all aspects of your game.
- Private Lessons: 1-on-1 attention with our experienced coaches in an environment that strives to reach competitive play.
School Holiday Tennis Camp
Enrol your child on our tennis camp. We will have a focus on tennis, but we will aim to keep all students entertained with other team sports on our courts as well as access to a playground and field.
Group Lessons
Group lessons are constructed with 3 or 4 players and are excellent in engaging students to socialise and help each other improve. All players are constantly active even when the coach is tending to another player.

Jack Liu2023-05-23I had one semester 1on1 training with coach Kristian and really enjoyed my training with him. He helped me a lot to pick up the basics as a new stater. He can always be flexiable to adjust the coach style to suit your need and push to your limit. I would highly recommend coach Kristian to anyone with all levels of tennis experiences.Lisa Procopio2023-05-036 months ago my son began to play tennis with the Ponds Tennis Academy as a beginner. From day one the staff have been very helpful, Aaron was always prompt and helpful with any questions that we had. His current coach is awesome, he really encourages and engages well with all the students. His very thorough with his teaching which has help my son immensely. Would highly recommend 😊Sundar Singh2023-05-02It is my third full term with TPTA and I absolutely love it. I have been hitting with Coach Madhu and off late with Coach Aaron. As someone who picked up the racquet within the last year and at 39 years old, the coaching has been immensely helpful. I have started to take confident cuts at the ball, serving a few aces and beating my mates who have played the game a lot longer than me! Aaron has been great to deal with, extremely professional and very accomodating. His coaching style is very direct, encouraging and picks up the weak spots right away. The tweaks he made improved my game right away! Keep up the good work guys!Bishoi Bikhit2023-02-05Aaron is a great coach! Extremely professional and definitely has heaps of experience, this is shown in the way he executes his lessons. I would recommend The Ponds Tennis Academy to anyone looking to get some lessons or play comp.Mandeep Gandhi2022-12-05The Ponds Tennis Academy provides excellent platform for learning tennis. Aaron and other coaches explain techniques in very easy to understand way to the kids. My son is totally enjoying the tennis time and learning at the same time.Rommel del Valle2022-12-05I liked the way Aaron has taken my son in a coaching setting 2:1 as Aaron has shown good guidance and support throughout his tenure. My son has shown a number of improvements in his game since he started a year ago. I like the way Aaron also shows flexibility and works in consultation with the parents to determine catch up sessions when the time permits that is due to rain delays. I also like that the locations are within driving distance and nearby. Keep up the good work Aaron and The Ponds Tennis Academy!Giancarlo Jurado2022-12-03Great tennis academy, coach Aaron is excellent. I have enjoyed and learnt a lot during the time I have been taking classes here.Perry Salam2022-12-02We have tried many tennis services and The Ponds Tennis Academy is by far the best.
