Southbourne Tennis Club hosted a highly beneficial Inclusive/Disability Workshop for Dorset coaches equipping them with essential information and knowledge on providing tennis provision for individuals with learning disabilities, autism, wheelchair users, and those who are physically or visually impaired.
With great enthusiasm, participating coaches worked alongside some of Southbourne Tennis Club’s disability players giving them a better understanding of the needs and challenges faced by these players. Following the practical session, Mark Bullock and David Sanger shared their knowledge and experience providing training on the specifics of running inclusive tennis sessions.
Coaches interested in further information around this area of tennis are invited to contact David Sanger, Dorset LTA Open Court Lead and Inclusive Tennis Support for help and support. David can be contacted by e-mail – davesanger@gmail.com.
