Junior Tennis

Glasnevin LTC have over 330 junior players, most of them active tennis players and involved in coaching and representing the club in Junior League and friendly matches throughout the year. Junior members are under 14 years of age on 31st of December of the preceding year. Intermediate members are an older group of Junior members between the ages of 14 and 18. They are an important part of our club, for now and for the future and we are fortunate to have many member families as part of our tennis community.

Junior Updates & Events

  • What a day we had last Saturday at the Junior RR finals day. This Junior Round Robin ran from March to May with 71 players and a total of 562 matches played.

    It’s such a good way for juniors to play all year round and a chance to play against a variety of players/levels as well as meeting new tennis friends. For anyone who wasn’t able to attend the finals day, I have your medal. Just give me a shout when you see me at the club next and I’ll give it to you.

  • Congrats to our U15 boys team who were runners up in the Junior League Final. Super achievement to get through so many rounds and be in the final. Well done to Adam Treacy, Josh Butler, Alex Hogan & John Sheridan.

  • Congrats to our U14s boys team who were winners in the Cup Final. Well done to all who played in the boys squad; Max Nisbet, Sean Owens, Bobby Emerson, Tom Williamson, Charlie Byrne, George Murray, Ted Mc Cormack, Liam Greenan, Felix Toolin & Jake Hogan.

  • Another great afternoon in the club last Sunday when Leinster tennis hosted a Red ball (U8s) & Orange ball (U9s) event in Glasnevin. Well done to all our up-and-coming juniors who played in it.

    These tournaments are a great opportunity for our junior members, age 10 and under, to get more match play against players from other clubs in a relaxed & enjoyable environment. These are regularly on in a variety of clubs. Keep an eye out for other dates on Tennis Ireland.

  • Fun tennis day for girls age 8-13 yrs on Sunday June 16th from 2-5pm. For further information contact Gavin Fox.

  • The Junior Ladder has now been updated following the Spring Round Robin. Reminder that if anyone

    wants to make a challenge, you can do so at any time, within the challenge rules.

  • Reminder that anyone age 14+ since 31/12/23 is eligible to enter our Senior Open, which will be on from 28th June – 6th July. You can enter HERE until 18th June.

  • Great to see so many of our intermediate players on senior summer league teams this year. Whether on a team, or subbing, they have all done extremely well in their matches, many on very high class teams and winning matches at a high level. It is testament to the work that Gary has put into these players, since they started as juniors at age 8/9, and have now moved up through the ranks to be playing adult matches and beating most of their opponents.

  • Teen Summer Camp for 1 week June 24th-28th Junior Summer Camps 2024 will start on July 1st and run for 7 weeks.
