With 5 centres, internationally and nationally accredited coaches, offering programs from 3 years+ across Red, Orange, Green and Yellow ball hotshots through to elite training for nationally ranked juniors, we are able to offer something for everyone, at affordable prices. We are the professional academy, providing a level of technical analysis and correction which is not available at other centres. We are a community based business focussed on grass roots tennis with the aim of developing as many players of competitive standard as possible. Tennis is our life and we live it and love it everyday.

Our approach to professionalism and inclusivity has been fostered over the past 30 years. We aim to create an environment in which students learn and flourish while being part of a team. The bonds formed within these teams, encourage friendship, sportsmanship and teamwork in young kids. Our aim to building an inclusive environment means every student feels welcome, heard and taught to enable them to excel. We teach kids and adults and offer various classes: group classes, private classes and holiday workshops – to name but a few, all reasonably priced. We are proudly Australian-owned and operated, and our experience over three decades meant an expansion of clinics to five locations to better serve our tennis community.

Testimonial

Hi Cagney Tennis Academy, my husband & I would like to tell you that we were so impressed with Coach Paris today. Her attention to detail, patience, creativity, effort and ongoing current feedback through her coaching session with the boys today, was phenomenal. We were absolutely stoked with their increased ability to listen and focus. They loved her games and we loved their listening. Please pass on our thanks and gratitude!

Testimonial

Myself and my family have been going to Cagney Tennis Academy at Eleebana Tennis Centre for almost 20 years and continue to enjoy tennis and coaching to this day. Derek and his staff are always professional and any segment of the business, be it coaching, competitions and/or clinics are always very well organised with all levels of ability and age groups provided for. Derek has lived in the Lake Macquarie area for many years and caters to all aspects of the “tennis experience” including the Pro Shop where racquets, restrings and clothing and equipment are available at very competitive prices and backed by a know-how of what best suits the individual. I would recommend Cagney Tennis Academy to anyone wanting to start a new, or continue an old, tennis journey with a professional organisation staffed by caring and knowledgeable staff.
