Tennis Leaders - 24th Oct

On Monday 24th October, Marina will be running a Tennis Leaders Course at Brondesbury for our young teenage players.

Tennis Leaders is aimed at 13 years plus and the content is suitable for older juniors just starting out on the tennis career pathway through to adult volunteers looking to support their local coach, referee or club official. 

It will run from 11.00am – 4.00pm and cover 3 modules: Introduction to Tennis, Running a Competition and Supporting your Coach.

The course costs £35 for the day. 

The Leaders then have to complete 6 voluntary hours at the club working with their coach, after which they receive a T-shirt and a Certificate and can then work as a 'volunteer', for which they get 'paid' their expenses. 

It is a great way to keep teenagers involved in the club, as they will be able to help with the Junior Programme and Holiday Camps.

To book please email Marina with the following:

  • Full name
  • British Tennis Membership number
  • Parent's mobile
  • Leader's mobile
  • T-shirt size (Adult Unisex S – XL)

Box League - September Start

We are excited to be restarting our successful Singles Box League in September for all Brondesbury members. 

As players will be split into leagues depending on ability, this is a great opportunity for members of ALL standards to play more regularly, keep fit and improve their game in competitive but friendly matches.

Each round will run for approximately 10 weeks, during which time you will be expected to have played everyone in your league. Matches will be one set, arranged at a mutually convenient time. However, there are to be no matches played during Club Social times. These include Saturday and Sundays 10.00 – 12.00.

To sign up for the league please email Marina before Sunday 4th September.
