The Road to Wimbledon is one of the largest junior competitions in British Tennis and it gives aspiring young players the opportunity to progress through to the world famous grass courts in SW19.

This year in Kent, 21 clubs and 7 schools ran events. The winners and some runners-up were then invited to play in the County Finals, which were held indoors at Bromley Tennis Centre, over the weekend of 5th & 6th July.

Well done to all competitors who played over the weekend.

All players in the County final received a visor and sweatband provided by the event sponsors HSBC.
