Two sports,
one trusted academy
Dudgeon Academy is a family owned and operated business, with a long coaching history in its own right and years before that as part of Keith Dudgeon Sports. Tony Dudgeon and his team build the correct base technique in tennis and cricket alike, in a positive, fun environment that keeps players coming back.
From a junior’s first Hot Shots hit, to a young batter’s cover drive, to an adult finally nailing their serve, every lesson is built around the person in front of you.
