Wythall Tennis Club achieves Beacon status
On Monday 16th July the club was presented the award by Herefordshire and Worcestershire LTA President, Ian King.
This award shows that the club is open to the local community for anyone and making it as easy as possible for anyone to play tennis at the club by providing sessions and equipment to give the game a go. Kevin Turner and the Wythall committee have done an excellent job creating a community environment at the club providing tennis for anyone locally who is interested.
Although the weather on Monday wasn’t the best, the club committee and club members still turned out and Ian King was full of praise for the club. In 2000, Ian was at the club to open their new club house so it was great for him to come back to the club to present them with this prestigious award to see how far the club has come in recent years.
