  • Neil Carter has been an instrumental figure in the tennis journeys of both my daughters.  Audrey has proudly represented Auckland and New Zealand and Jasmine has represented Auckland.

    With a wealth of experience and an unmatched record in producing national title winners, Neil is arguably the best tennis coach in New Zealand. His results, dedication, and passion for player development speak for themselves, and I am grateful for the lasting influence he has had on both my daughters—on and off the court.

  • I’ve had fantastic experiences with The Game at the Orakei Tennis club. All the coaches have been incredibly skilled and knowledgeable about the game, but they also make every session enjoyable and motivating. I particularly love the drills based sessions but have enjoyed many private & group lessons too. I find the coaching style is encouraging, tailored to individual needs, and always focused on helping you improve while still having fun (and realistic about what we can achieve at the age & stage we are at)!
