How Much Are Kids Tennis Lessons at Heffron Park? A Full Price Breakdown
In short: kids tennis lessons at Heffron Park run from $24 a week for the youngest group classes up to $44 a week for older beginners, with Squad billed per term instead of weekly. What you pay depends on which stage your child is placed in, not their age alone, since placement at Heffron Park is based on skill and readiness rather than a strict age cutoff.

What's Included
Every session is run by Tennis Australia accredited coaches, using modified balls, racquets, and court sizes matched to each stage, so the game genuinely fits the child rather than the child having to fit an adult-sized game. Exactly what equipment is provided versus what a family needs to bring isn't detailed on the program page, so it's worth confirming with a coach when you enrol, especially for the higher stages where racquet size starts to matter more.
How Billing Works
After a free trial, enrolment runs on a fortnightly direct debit, so you're billed every two weeks rather than paying a large sum upfront for a full term. This makes it easier to trial a stage without committing to a big lump payment, and easier to pause or adjust if your child moves up a stage mid-term.
The Active Kids Voucher Can Cut the Cost
Families receiving the Family Tax Benefit can apply for the NSW Government's Active and Creative Kids voucher, worth $50 per eligible child, available twice a year (from January and again from July). Heffron Park accepts these vouchers toward tennis fees, so it's worth applying before you enrol if your family qualifies, since it effectively covers close to a month of Kinder Tennis or around three weeks of Yellow Ball.
Value by Session Length
Longer sessions cost more per week, but not necessarily more per minute. Working purely off the weekly group-class prices above: Green Ball 2's 90-minute session works out to roughly 44 cents a minute, the best per-minute value in the program, while Launch Pad's shorter 30-minute session costs closer to 97 cents a minute, reflecting the smaller, closer-attention format typical for younger age groups. Neither is "better," they're priced for what each stage actually needs: more individual attention early on, more court time as kids progress.
