In 2023 and 2024 the Dan Maskell Tennis Trust has given special project funding to We Do Tennis. We Do Tennis CIC are a not for profit company with a passion for delivering all things disability tennis with Tony Knappett leading the way as their head of disability. Tony comments:
‘2024 has been a tremendous success, exceeding expectations for growth within the Rebound Active+ network. We have connected venues, coaches, and participants in their local areas while collaborating with charities and NHS services to support individuals living with long-term illnesses in becoming more active. We also delivered four Rebound Active+ coach training days, equipping 27 coaches with the knowledge and skills to deliver and expand these valuable sessions.
Your support of our programs empowers the growth and development needed to champion diversity and inclusion in tennis. Together, we’re creating life-changing opportunities for individuals living with long-term illnesses and disabilities to lead more active, fulfilling lives. By opening doors to the joys of tennis, we’re not only fostering physical activity but also making a lasting, positive impact on mental health and well-being. It’s truly inspiring to see so many people embracing the game, from recreational players to competitors, and knowing that you’ve helped make it possible. ‘
