Tennis lessons in Pimlico, on your square
Private coaching on the garden-square courts of Warwick Square and Eccleston Square. Coach Boof is the coach Warwick Square recommends to its members. He comes to you; no court of your own, and Battersea Park is across the bridge.
The courts in Pimlico
Pimlico is a grid of garden squares, and two of them keep tennis courts for the people who live around them. Boof Tennis has coached on all of them. If you hold keys or membership for any of these, Nick meets you there with the balls and a spare racket. If you hold none of them, the public options at the bottom are his.
Warwick Square
The garden court off Belgrave Road. The square's own website recommends Nick to residents looking for a coach.
Eccleston Square
The court in the square garden by Victoria. Keyholders only, and a two minute walk from the station.
Eaton Square & Belgrave Square
Five minutes north in Belgravia. Garden-square courts where Nick has coached families for years.
Battersea Park
Across Chelsea Bridge, fifteen minutes on foot from Pimlico. Council courts you can book by the hour, floodlit, with padel next door at the Millennium Arena.
South Park, Fulham
Nick's home base. Seven floodlit LTA courts, no membership, twenty minutes by car or on the District line to Parsons Green. Read about South Park.
Lessons on your court
One to one
An hour, your pace, your goals. Nick brings the balls, a spare racket, and a plan that starts from how you actually play.
Kids on the square
Individual lessons from age five, or up to four friends in one hour. The garden court is the best classroom there is: no crowd, no waiting for a turn.
Two of you
Partners, flatmates, a parent and a teenager. Semi-private lessons share the hour and the cost.
How booking works
1. Pick a time
Choose from the free slots on the booking page and say which court you have, or that you need one. About a minute, no account.
2. Nick confirms
He confirms by email, usually the same day. If you need a court, he sorts one at Battersea Park or South Park. Nothing is charged until then.
3. Play
He arrives at your court with everything. Bring a racket if you have one; if not, say so.
