This was our first Inclusive tennis Open Day event where we showcased a range of adaptive forms of tennis. We occupied the whole of the venue for a full afternoon where, on separate courts we allowed anyone who came to experience and have a go at:
Walking tennis
Short / mini tennis
Visually Impaired
Wheelchair
The afternoon was run by our on trained coaches and supported by our ambassador for Diversity and Inclusion, Robyn Love. Her partner, Laurie Williams ( also a Paralympian!) also attended to ‘give tennis a go !). They demonstrated wheelchair court skills and answered questions.
We hope to repeat the event annually or maybe again later this year at a different park or the county.
