A love for tennis, shaped by experience and community.

About us

Drop Shot Tennis Coaching is all about making tennis fun, welcoming, and part of the community here in Castlemaine.

Our head coach, Calum Curtis, has coached in Shepparton, Melbourne and spent three years in London with All Star Tennis.

Living in Wimbledon, the home of lawn tennis, showed him that tennis can be more than a sport. It is a way to meet people, stay active and enjoy yourself while learning new skills.

That is the approach we bring to every session. Keep it friendly, keep it fun and help players improve no matter where they are starting from.

Based at Castlemaine Lawn Tennis Club, we run lessons for kids, teens and adults. Whether you have never picked up a racquet or you are keen to sharpen your game, there is a spot for you on our courts.

Our Mission

To make tennis accessible, enjoyable, and rewarding for everyone in Castlemaine and the surrounding community.
