The LTA and Dan Maskell Tennis Trust are running another set of disability tennis camps. We have organised specialised coaches who will work closely with players on tactics and certain skill areas to really develop their tennis. The camps are intended for people already playing tennis and can hold a rally of 3-4 shots. They are not come and try events for beginners. Lunch is not included but all players will be encouraged to sit together in the lunch break and share ideas and opportunities. Each camp is £30 entry fee which will cover 6 hours of expert coaching and indoor court hire. Numbers will be capped to ensure not too many players on court, so please get in early to book:
2025 Visually Impaired and Blind coaching camp:
Saturday 1 March the Visually Impaired camp will be held for players in sight category B2- B5, starting at midday and finishing at 6pm. On Sunday 2 March the Blind tennis camp, for players in sight category B1 will be held from 10am until 4pm.
Both camps will be held at Graves Health and Sport Centre in Sheffield – Bochum Parkway, Jordanthorpe, Sheffield S8 8JR. The local blind society is providing a minibus to transport players to/from the train station if required.
The amazing coaching line up is already confirmed as Louise Assioun and Ben Howarth!
The courts are indoor so guaranteed to go ahead, regardless of weather.
