Evolve Tennis Coaching

Last updated April 2026

Friendly, high-energy junior tennis lessons at Evolve Tennis Coaching in Colonel Light Gardens make learning to play feel less like a lesson and more like a game. Coaches use modified balls and smaller courts to help kids from 3 up grip a racket and hit their first forehand with confidence. Parents love the progress updates and the fact that siblings can play together in back-to-back time slots on the same Saturday morning. The leafy suburban courts tucked behind Colonel Light Gardens Primary School create the perfect sunny spot for a racket-swinging adventure. Whether your child dreams of centre court or just wants to run around with friends, this is the place to start. Great for school holiday activities in Adelaide and things to do with kids in Colonel Light Gardens all year round. **What to Bring Clothes you don’t mind getting grass-stained. A water bottle labelled with your child’s name. Sun-smart hat and SPF 50+ sunscreen. Light trainers or tennis shoes. A towel for post-lesson sweat or rain drizzle. **Best Age Range Tiny tots start with red-ball classes from age 3. Orange-ball groups take over at 6, and green-ball squads begin at 8. Best for 3–12 year olds. **Good to Know Lessons run Saturday mornings and Wednesday afternoons during school term. Book one-off trial sessions for $15 per child. Casual spots fill fast in term 1 and term 4—lock in your slot early. Free on-site parking along Flinders Ave. If rain interrupts play, you’ll get an SMS with makeup lesson options. **Nearby Grab a post-match smoothie at The Grange Beach Kiosk just 10 minutes away in Grange, Adelaide. Let the kids burn off extra energy at Colonel Light Gardens Reserve playground on the same block. **Tips From Other Parents Arrive 10 minutes early the first week so your child can scope the courts and meet the coach. Always pack a spare shirt—even with sunscreen, red balls leave their mark. Try the 3-week starter pack; it’s cheaper than single sessions and gets kids hooked before you commit.
