Loughborough Lawn Tennis Club on Ingle Pingle has just been awarded Tennis Clubmark status which is the LTA’s quality accreditation endorsement. It caps a successful summer season which saw the ladies first team and men’s second teams unbeaten in the league.
A spokesperson for the club said of the LTA’s award: “This is recognition for a club which prides itself on giving tennis opportunities to players of all ages and abilities in a friendly, caring and attractive environment.”
Meanwhile the club’s leading wheelchair player, Dave Phillipson, goes to the British Open Championships at Nottingham this week with great confidence after reaching the doubles final at the Czech Open Tournament last month.
Closer to home the junior coaching summer camps for four-year-olds upwards are in full swing and the coaches are always pleased to welcome new faces. There are also a number of graded tournaments taking place over the next two months including a grade four ratings tournament at the beginning of August.
