  • Councillors Report 2 Jan 21
    BUSINESS UPDATE To LTA Councillors From Scott Lloyd Purpose of paper To provide a business update Date 2 December 2020 Confidentiality Can be shared with County / Association Committee Participation (OS) The upward trend in once-a-year participation has continued through the autumn months; the end of October reporting that nearly 4m people across GB have played tennis at least once in the last year – this is versus an original target of 3.6m and a revised target for 2020 of 3.8m. The growth in once a month participation flattened in October and given lockdown in November we will now not hit our target of 1.4m. The target for once a week kid’s participation will report in December as part of Sport England’s Active Lives Kids Survey (Appendix 1 – Business Dashboard). The team have done a good job in continuing to drive adoption of Rally and Gate Access systems as part of the cross business approach to the accessibility strategy. There is a further opportunity to drive adoption of Rally with the planned ‘Weather the Court’ winter player retention campaign, which will go live once tennis can be played post lockdown. Furthermore, good progress has been made against a number of key strategic deliverables including; venue adoption of gate access systems, the new competition management system, the integration of and growth plan for Local Tennis Leagues, the new venue registration proposition, further development of the club support toolkit which is at the forefront of the autumn forums, as well as the re-launch of our important SERVES and Open Court programmes.

  • Grass Roots: the Development of Tennis in Britain, 1918-1978
    Grass Roots: the Development of Tennis in Britain, 1918-1978 Abstract Most research on British tennis has focused on social exclusion at the tennis club, on its middle-class image, and on the ‘shamateurism’ of the pre-1968 era. This paper will chart the development of the sport at grass roots level. It will demonstrate that tennis in the workplace and public parks allowed lower-income families to play and that significant numbers did so in less formal settings than those overseen by regional Lawn Tennis Associations. It will suggest that a concentration on the wealthy south-east of England has distorted our impression of the sport itself and the ‘average’ club. Evidence from club histories, official handbooks, company archives and detailed local studies presents a very different picture from that of the suburban ‘garden party’. Introduction ‘Lawn tennis can be played and enjoyed by boys and girls, men and women, of all degrees of excellence and of all ages’. (It) ‘flourishes in the clubs, the schools and the public parks and … can be played and enjoyed almost literally from the cradle to the grave. It is a recreational amusement played not too seriously but with just sufficient competitive interest to make it attractive. The great beauty of the game of lawn tennis is that, like cricket, it’s a game for everyone’. i This was the opinion of J.C. Smyth, tennis correspondent of the Sunday Times from 1946 to 1951. Perhaps these sentiments help to explain why it has received limited and patchy coverage from an academic community that has focused much of its attention on professional, competitive and elite aspects of sport.

With 10 points from fi ve matches, El Jaish are already assured of the top place in Group D, but Al Ahli will have everything to play for as they target a spot in the last 16 by fi nishing second. For that to happen, however, the Saudi giants, who have six points from fi ve matches, will have to beat El Jaish and also hope UAE’s Al Ain don’t defeat Uzbekistan’s Nasaf in the other Group D fi xture today. As things stand now, Al Ain, Al Ahli and Nasaf are all in the race for the sec- ond spot, but El Jaish coach Sabri Lam- ouchi was in no mood for any conces- sions on the eve of the match yesterday. “It will be defi nitely a hard match,” said Lamouchi. “We are up against one of the best teams in Saudi Arabia, who have re- cently won the league title.

  • Andy Murray Articles 2004-2006
    ANDY MURRAY ARTICLES 2004-2006 2004 Scots tennis 'courting disaster' Despite helping to produce world-class young players Scotland’s top tennis trainer has quit in disgust, writes Tom Lynch Published: 8 August 2004 There’s a wistful note to coach Murray’s voice when she recalls the moment. A hint of pride too. “I couldn’t believe that the kids I started off with when they were eight or nine were in the biggest tournament in the world.” Now, as a summer fog descends on her Dunblane home, Murray’s mood has changed. All the optimism has been replaced by frustration. Last week she resigned from her post at Tennis Scotland, disgusted at the lack of backing from the country’s sports administrators and its politicians and fearing that youngsters who have the talent to win top titles could be forced to leave the game. She is not alone in her thinking. According to Murray, three of the four tennis development staff in Scotland have quit this year, allegedly fed up with their puny resources. Next to go, Murray fears, will be the country’s outstanding crop of young players, forced out of the game because there is simply not the money to help them break through into the big time, to compete alongside the Tim Henmans and Greg Rusedskis for the top honours. The tragic thing is, she says, is that she and her colleagues have produced tremendous talents “against all the odds”. For, while the Scottish executive plans to spend £30m on football to make it competitive again on the world stage, funding for tennis has been slashed by 60%.
