What our CLients Say

Both my daughters have been with ATA Tennis since they were in Red Ball. They both love playing tennis and one of them has progressed to League C then B as she advances. What we love is not just the professionalism of the coaches, but also the great team spirit that ATA induces in all the kids. They have fun, they play, they learn and they cheer each other on. Tennis skills, mental preparation, game strategies, teamwork and etiquette on court - absolute joy to be a part of the kids’ journey to grow in tennis with ATA. We also met some parents along the way that share the same values and sometimes a few drinks and many slices of pizza - we have to watch so many amateur matches together and hold each others’ hands through wins and losses. Thank you for coaching the kids and us parents to enjoy and make the most out of tennis!

Toby, Nathan and the ATA team have looked after our family for the past 6 years. They taught our 3 children tennis since an early age and they trained my husband and I through tennis and Bootcamp sessions. They play a big role in our weekly fitness and push us to be better players and sportsmen. I recommend anyone joining the ATA family as we met also some of our best friends!

Around 8 years ago, my children and I embarked on our tennis journey at the Australasia Tennis Aces (ATA). Prior to joining ATA, none of us had any prior experience in the sport. However, since becoming part of ATA, our experience as tennis players has undergone a remarkable transformation, and our love for the game has grown immensely. The commitment and individualised guidance provided by ATA's coaches, particularly Matt, Luka, and Nathan, have been instrumental in our initial skill development and subsequent refinement of our technical and strategic abilities. Whether you're a newcomer to tennis or seeking to elevate your skills to the next level, I wholeheartedly recommend ATA for its nurturing and inclusive environment.

Tennis Bootcamp led by Toby Clark and Nathan Booth has truly changed my life. Couldn’t recommend a better start to the day.

The early morning bootcamps at the HKFC run by Coach Toby are, in my opinion some of the finest Hong Kong has to offer. What I love about them is the quality of the tennis and fitness coaching. It is so, so rare to find them combined so expertly all in one class. Toby is a highly experienced tennis and fitness coach. This ensures that every session is different, fun and as challenging as you want to make it. The other thing that always impresses me is his ability to combine top level players with people new to the game. To top it all off you have the backdrop of Happy Valley and the Racecourse to get those early morning juices flowing. I try to go along at least twice a week.. see you there!
