As a result of receiving generous funding from Think Health Think Nature, Tain Tennis Club ran free coaching sessions throughout the October holidays for all ages of youngsters.

Over 70 signed up.

Despite the torrential rain on Monday, improving to very cold on Friday, everyone had a great time learning new skills.

Scott Fraser, our LTA Accredited Level 3 coach ran the sessions, ably helped by some of his teenage players. The younger children received a Nature Pack, racket and balls with which to practice.

On Sunday there was a very successful free parent and child day, and once again the courts were packed.

This week sees the start of 5 weeks of free adult coaching and cardio tennis which are already proving to be very popular.

Think Health Think Nature group encourages people to improve their health and wellbeing through outdoor pursuits.
