Technique
before everything.
Private lessons built around one principle: understand why the ball goes where it goes, and build the habits that hold under pressure.

the sake of it
Most players have drilled their mistakes thousands of times. The goal of these sessions is to interrupt that, identify the mechanical root of what is going wrong, and replace it with something that works under match conditions.
Sessions are adapted mainly to NTRP level 3.5 through 4.5. Whether you are building consistency for the first time or refining a specific shot to hold up under pressure, the approach is the same: understand the mechanism, drill it correctly, then test it under realistic conditions.
Coach Christian Oppegaard · Updated September 2025
| Level | Consistency | Serve & Return | Tactical maturity |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3.5 | Can sustain medium rallies and direct the ball with moderate pace, but breaks down under pressure. | First serve is developing, second serve can sit up, and returns are often safe rather than assertive. | Starting to recognize patterns, but usually plays one speed and one shape. |
| 4.0 | More reliable from both wings and better balance between offense and control. | Serve has clearer shape and placement. Return is more active and starts the point with purpose. | Uses depth, angles and court position more intentionally. Can identify weaker patterns in the opponent. |
| 4.5 | Stable under pace, comfortable changing direction, absorbs and redirects pressure. | Serve is a weapon more often than a formality. Return can neutralize or attack with intent. | Builds points with a plan, varies tempo and understands when to defend, hold or attack. |

Please read these terms carefully before registering for a course. By signing up, you automatically accept these conditions.
Email
Players are required to provide a valid and active email address when registering. All important information regarding activities and training sessions is sent by email, so the address provided must be correct and in use. If you do not receive emails from us, please contact the club.
Registration
Course registration is binding and applies for the full season. The full course fee must be paid even if a player chooses to leave the course during the term or misses sessions due to illness or injury. Players who provide a valid medical certificate will receive a 50% refund for the period they are unable to participate due to illness or injury.
Cancelled Sessions
Players should be aware that course sessions may occasionally be cancelled due to league matches, tournaments, or unforeseen circumstances such as coach illness, adverse weather, public restrictions, or other force majeure events. Such cancellations do not entitle participants to financial compensation, but the club will make a reasonable effort to offer alternative training in place of the lost session.
Membership
You do not need to be a club member to participate in courses. Information about membership and membership fees can be found at https://www.konglungentk.no/medlemskap/.
Trial Session
The club does not offer trial sessions. However, a participant may withdraw after the first session of a course, regardless of the reason. Notice must be given no later than one week after the first session if the participant does not wish to continue. In that case, only one session will be charged.
Payment
The listed prices apply to one training session per week. Payment must be made via Vipps to 19547 before the first course session.
Absence
Course participation is personal, which means that you may not send a substitute if you are absent from a training session.
Missed sessions due to personal circumstances, such as illness or travel, cannot be made up in other groups.
