tiny tennis was started in 2016 by professional tennis coach, Niel Gillman. Having two daughters in pre-primary he realised that the benefits of playing tennis from a young age will add tremendous value to their children’s physical and psychological development and the business opportunity was inspired from this.

By combining Niel’s exceptional way of working with children, his tennis skills, 20 years of coaching experience and being the owner of his own tennis academy, tiny tennis was designed as a play based program, tailored specifically for young tennis players between the ages of 3 and 6 years, offering them the ideal introduction to tennis and cultivating a lifelong love of the sport. We believe that children should enjoy an active lifestyle and our mission at tiny tennis is to introduce players to the fundamentals of tennis in a fun and enjoyable environment that will encourage a healthy lifestyle and ensure they play tennis for many years to come whether it be social or competitive.
