The gap between the best Brits closer to and the top WTA players like Venus is growing. There are less girls playing full-time and the average Venus British ranking is on the decline. We want every girl in Britain to have a positive experience and for them to be encouraged to maximise their potential. Using our collective experience, and four years of voluntary work and research, we have drawn up a plan of initiatives which will help the plight of all female tennis players. All we need now is funding to set up these schemes. We haven’t qualified for government or LTA funding so we are calling on the private sector and the public to help us show that British women aren’t just born to be bad tennis players. We have the formula for filling in the gaps in the British tennis system - we just need support. Though our Friends of scheme, any patriotic tennis fan can become a sponsor for as little as £30.
