Tennis in the Community

We run a mixture of free and low cost tennis programmes using community spaces and the park courts in Finsbury park & Rosemary Gardens. The key aims of the project is to promote weekly physical activity and social inclusion playing tennis. We want to introduce more people to the great sport of tennis with a focus on people from low income or unemployment, persons of black and minority ethnicity (BAME) and individuals who identify themselves as having an SEND.

The project tackles some of the key barriers that can prevent people from taking part in weekly physical activity including economic circumstances and accessibility. These factors have informed the programmes we have created. By forming partnerships with local community groups we have been able to offer tennis within local housing estates, youth centres and schools.
