ALCESTER Tennis Club is gearing up for a busy summer of coaching beginning on Saturday, July 15, as it looks to build on the fervour created by Wimbledon.

This is when the Moorfield Road club throws open its doors for its second Play Tennis event.

The first one was geared towards adults but this one is offering youngsters the chance try the sport - for free.

It starts at 10am with a one-hour session for parents and toddlers. At 11am coaching is for six-nine-year-olds, before moving on to the 10-12 year olds at 1pm. The final session starts at 2.30pm and is for those 13 and over.

To book a place or for more information call Penny Harris on 01789 762724 or 07879 637099.
