Red Hot Tennis - Mullumbimby

Red Hot Tennis has been a staple of the Mullumbimby tennis community for 20 years.

Tennis Australia qualified coach Justin de Candia offers coaching for all ages dedicated to fostering a lifelong love of the game & continued growth of local tennis.

Our programs use a Game-Based Approach, prioritising active, engaging sessions where players develop skills that transfer directly to match play. We believe tennis is an effective vehicle for developing personal character—encouraging resilience, sportsmanship, and self-discipline both on and off the court.

Junior Program

Tennis Australia Hot Shots (Ages 3–10+)

Small-group classes use the official Tennis Australia Hot Shots framework providing a fun-focused environment for children to develop foundational skills, coordination, and confidence through age-appropriate equipment.

Junior Development (Ages 11–16+)

For our older juniors, the focus shifts toward tactical awareness, advanced stroke production, and match-play strategy. These sessions encourage on-court confidence and a versatile game style, helping players acquire the skills and self belief needed to enjoy tennis for a lifetime.

Regular holiday programs are also available, keeping players active and involved on court all year-round.

Adult Program

Whether you are looking to refine your technique, meet new players, or stay active, our adult sessions offer the right balance.

Private Coaching For those looking for a personalised experience, private lessons are structured around your specific goals. You get dedicated, one-on-one time on court to work on your technique, tactics, or physical fitness, helping you learn at your own pace.

Adult Group Lessons Weekly sessions focus on building skills in an active, social & welcoming environment. These classes are a great way to improve your game while connecting with other players in the local community.

Our focus is simple: delivering quality tennis programs that are welcoming and accessible to everyone.
