Baseline Tennis Coaching Academy

We have been apart of the Baseline Tennis club for 2 years now and we love it! Makalia has grown in confidence and skill over this time. All of the coaches and the team have been fantastic to work with!

I love that the program is fully inclusive of all abilities. Everyone is accommodated and all children are encouraged and embraced.

Miller Family

Our experience at Baseline Tennis has been nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived from the Solomon Islands, Wayne and the team welcomed us with open arms, making us feel right at home. The friendly and welcoming atmosphere at the courts has been a constant source of joy for us. My daughter's tennis skills have significantly improved since joining Baseline Tennis. She thoroughly enjoys the coaching sessions and learns so much from the dedicated coaches. As a parent, I appreciate the thorough and clear communication from the team, which keeps me well-informed and reassured. We are incredibly happy to have found this amazing community at Baseline Tennis. It has truly been a great experience for our family.

Constantine Family

My son joined the tennis club last year as a complete beginner, and he absolutely loved it! The coaching team is fantastic—patient, encouraging, and focused on helping each player develop at their own pace. From the moment we joined, the atmosphere was welcoming and fun, making it easy for him to feel part of the group. The program offers great value, and the free racquet and shirt was a wonderful bonus. We’re excited to be back this year, and I highly recommend this club to any parent looking to introduce their child to tennis!

I can truly feel the dedication, purpose and passion that goes into this programme.. We Highly recommended! 

Rutherford Family

My 7 years old daughter joined Baseline Tennis from last year. She got very motivated when she received her very own welcome racquet as she joined. She had no experience, but all the coaches encourage and teach her to improve tennis with fun. She absolutely loves going to her lesson every week. Great experience.

Tyson Family

Since relocating to Cairns, we’ve been playing tennis with Baseline Tennis Academy, and it’s been an absolutely fantastic experience! The coaching staff is incredibly skilled and passionate, offering lessons tailored for all levels. Their well-organized social tennis events and tournaments create plenty of opportunities to connect with other players, sharpen your skills, and enjoy the game. We highly recommend Baseline Tennis Academy to anyone looking to improve their tennis while being part of a welcoming and friendly community.

Varotaria Family

My son started playing tennis here with no experience. His coach found his weaknesses and strengths in tennis and provided accurate advises, then my son improved his skill in last few years. Very good and friendly coaches there

Foster Family

The baseline team is incredible, all the coaches have a great mix of professionalism, fun and positivity that are sure to turn any kid into a tennis enthusiast. They have created many opportunities and development pathways for Cairns. Watching the kids develop and grow while still having fun is a huge credit to them! 

Kahler Family

My son and I joined Cairns International Tennis Centre approximately 3.5 years ago. Baseline tennis is without a doubt the best coaching program I have ever come across. These guys are incredibly personable, professional, coaching is exceptional and the coaches make you feel very welcome at all times. I’m so impressed by the dedication of the baseline team. When you walk around talking to other parents around the club, they all talk just as highly of the program as me. You will love it. Thanks so much Wayne and all the coaches.

Guirguis Family

Wayne and the team of coaches are amazing! They’re friendly, professional and engaging. My son absolutely loves his sessions! 

Anderson Family

My 7 and 10 year olds love Saturday tennis with Baseline. They had no prior experience and were not keen to start - however the coaches are amazing and always make the session fun and engaging. The hour goes by super quick and it’s a lovely way to get the weekend off to an active start.

Millar Family

The friendly and highly skilled coaching team, the organised social events, and the overall sense of community make Baseline Tennis Cairns more than just a place to play tennis, it's a place to connect, grow your skills, build your passion and have fun.

Ali Family

Many thanks Baseline Cairns. I just wanted to say that Dylan and the other coaches at the Freshwater Monday 'beginners/ intermediate classes'have been very welcoming, encouraging,  patient and good company. I hadn't played for over 30 years so was worried I would be a nuisance and maybe I should not bother. But on and off over the past 2 years or so I have joined as many classes as possible and I think they are great ! Thanks to Wayne also,  to for always keeping me in the loop. I am looking forward to starting another term soon.

Grose Family

The enthusiasm of Wayno and his team of coaches always make us feel welcome. The kids want to go to Tennis because they enjoy the positivity of the sessions and feel good afterwards. As a parent, Baseline's flexibility with make-up classes is greatly appreciated.  We have met so many nice people as a result of having this flexibility through tennis at the freshwater tennis club and the other associated clubs at Redlynch and CITC . Wayne and his team have done a great job in growing this tennis family in Cairns but he always still has time for a chat. Thanks Wayno and Team.

Hahn Family

Love seeing my son training but I love seeing Wayne coaching all the group. You can truly see how much he loves tennis and the passion and joy he puts into it. Thank you Wayne, you are truly amazing at what you do.

Merce Family

Awesome club! Best line-up of coaches I’ve ever seen in any club, just good young people who are amazing mentors to the younger ones

Sankey Family

We've been a part of the Edge Hill club for three years. The teachers have all been super friendly and engaged with our child. The club in general is supportive and we can't wait to come back for another season. The Academy is prompt and efficient with communication and the end of year celebrations are well organized.

Volker Family

When my daughter started at the CITC I did not know what to expect. I thought it will be just another activity that she will take part of once a week and no more. But from the moment we stepped in the Center it felt like being a part of a  big family. The warm welcome and the constant care encouragement and support are always there ,and now,  after  4 years , my daughter build up her confidence and is a part of the coaching team and feeling part of the CITC COMMUNITY. I do recommend to anyone that I know to join the centre, professional and happy staff, great  atmosphere and amazing programmes.

Pagliari Family

My son, Benjamin , has been playing tennis for about five years, starting at prep age. During this time, he has met many friends, gotten to know his coaches, and looks forward to his tennis time every week. We are currently on vacation overseas , where he also has the opportunity to meet other friends through tennis.

Yoon Family

Wayne and his coaches are amazing, professional, always approachable and accommodating . I am delighted that our two children have had the opportunity to develop a love of tennis due to this professionalism as every interaction is positive and consequently the weekly sessions are fun.

Creighton Family

Baseline tennis has been an incredible journey so far for my son. He has acquired new skills and techniques whilst making new friends! The coaches are fabulous and friendly and always happy to share their knowledge with the kids…plus get the kids playing some fun games too!

Ireland Family

From the moment we met Wayne and his team we felt very welcome.  Baseline Tennis creates a relaxed and fun filled environment for all players as they learn and grow their tennis skills.  Our son started the Baseline Tennis after school program, attended the vacation ‘stay active camps’ and is now in the Academy program.  Over the last 4 years he has been challenged, guided and developed by the talented coaches at Baseline Tennis.  He is surrounded by a great team who are really invested in his individual growth and he now wears a coaching shirt with pride as a junior coach with the Baseline team.

Godkin Family

We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Coach Wayne Fielder and his team! From day one, Wayne and his team has made tennis fun and engaging for our child. The coaching is top-notch—personalized and encouraging—helping our child improve both their skills and confidence on the court. The club has such a welcoming, friendly vibe that makes every session enjoyable, and the team really feels like a second family! Additionally, off the court, Wayne and his team are also well-respected individuals in the community, who are such great role models for our kids. The value of the program is outstanding, and we’re excited to continue watching our child grow surrounded by the role models. Highly recommend The Baseline Team to any serious tennis player, as well as any social player who just wants to stay fit in safe and fun environment! Thanks, The Baseline Team! We are lucky to have you in Cairns!

Wang Family

"The coaches are so much fun!" Coaches are very friendly and upbeat! Jasper has progressed every year with a variety of caring coaches :) Jasper leaves every lesson feeling invigorated and enthusiastic :) It's a great system with one or two lessons per week, weekly matchplay options and optional age-appropriate tournaments foe the kids
