Pershore tennis star receives regional award

Imogen Looker has been presented with the Herefordshire and Worcestershire LTA’s Regional Young Person of the Year award.

Our award-winning Club is delighted to announce that junior member Imogen Looker not only won at the local annual Herefordshire & Worcestershire LTA’s County Awards Banquet in October 2018 and has gone on to be awarded at a regional level too.

Imogen has been playing at Pershore Tennis Centre since the age of 4, demonstrating great commitment to the sport as a player, and now as a young coach.

As well as teaching tennis at Pershore, Imogen is also a part of the Ladies A Team and has been Club singles champion for the past 5 years, as well as representing her county. Recently, Imogen was diagnosed with (ME) chronic fatigue syndrome and despite this, continues to commit to her weekly 6 hours of coaching without fuss or complaint.

The 30 national finalists will next depart on the road to Wimbledon and to the finals in July at the All England Lawn Tennis Club.
