Alan Parker won a pair of Wimbledon tickets for this years Championships!
Alan Parker won a pair of Wimbledon tickets for this years Championships at yesterday’s Competition Organiser & Referee Workshop in Sunderland! Parker is a local Accredited Referee who runs a number of events and tournaments across the North East. Out of the 15 plus course participants, Alan’s ticket was drawn out and we couldn’t have been happier to hear that the North Tyneside resident had never been to watch the world’s greatest tennis tournament on earth at SW19!
Katie Rayment, who is based at the National Tennis Centre in the Competitions Team expressed,
“It has been brilliant to come up to meet all of the Competition Organisers and Referees in the North East & Cumbria. We completed the ticket draw at the end of the course and Alan’s trip down to Wimbledon is going to be something he will never forget!”
This years Competition Organiser and Referee courses follow on from the well received introduction last Spring. Much of the feedback from last year has been used to shape the agenda for the workshops which will take place in March 2012. The workshops will give attendees the opportunity to share best practise. Along with this it will allow local referees and competition organisers to provide an insight into shaping the way our Officiating Team to take things forward.
