All the children in Year 1 and 2 were able to have some tennis coaching with a coach from the Tennis Foundation. The children had to have a go at various activities to show they had control of the tennis ball. They were taught to focus on the ball, they then had to bounce and catch the ball which progressed onto bouncing and catching with a clap in between! Next they had to control the tennis ball with a tennis racket, first by balancing it on the racket and then dribbling it around the room with the racket to guide it. All the children worked really hard to gain these new skills. They all received a certificate and an invitation to The Tennis Foundation Roadshow at Easton College Tennis Centre on Saturday 21st and Sunday 22nd October, a free event for children aged 3-10 years.
