WOMEN’S GRANT – COACHING WITH GAIL AIKEN
During this year we received a grant towards Women in Sport. We have confirmed Gail Aiken to run a series of Coaching Clinics and invite all women of our club to consider signing up for these.
Here is a little information on Gail – “Gail has had an array of career pursuits spanning fifty years but all with one common factor in mind – innovating ways for people to realize their full potential. Gail combined her business and tennis coach experience to various national roles with Tennis Australia over a fourteen-year period. Then she found herself reignited on the court when attending World Pickleball Day in 2019. She then undertook her coaching certification with Pickleball Coaching International. She continues to compete when coaching commitments allow.”
Gail says “Have you ever wondered how the journey toward athletic performance actually unfolds? Maybe you thought you didn’t have the ability or had missed that time in life? Don’t be fooled by the term “athletic”. Life has cycles and THERE IS a genuine personal best that everyone of us can attain, if you know how to do it”.
4 Clinics are being offered. Clinics 1-3 will have 8 players in each clinic and will have three sessions that flow on to the following week and each will include a combination of relevant skill building, how to care for your body, while learning the art of how to play as a team. Please note that in registering for any of these 3 clinics, you are committing to the 3 Saturdays of attendance.
Clinic 1 (8.00-10.00am 15th, 22nd February and 1st March) for players 2.5+ Advanced Beginners

Clinic 4 sessions will be a Skinny Singles intensive for 6 players each week. This series is for players who wish to understand how to use reduced court space to improve consistency, understand how to strategize and apply winning tactics. Players book for one week only.
Each participant will only pay $10.00 for each session of a Cllinic (that is, $30 for the three weeks or $10 for one week of a skinny singles intensive).
