Groups and Schools
Provide sessions for 14 different groups and schools
With full funding we can coach a significant number of tennis players and groups, providing sessions that cater for a diverse set of needs. We currently work with a wide range of local schools and groups and really want to continue, and expand our Tennis Able provision if possible. Funding for our local aims will enable us to deliver the following:

As we continue to develop Tennis Able, we want to expand what we do and help other coaches within the region set up their own Tennis Able sessions.
