Mirfield Tennis coaching sessions

Jun 17 2009 Huddersfield Daily Examiner

BACK to Tennis sessions at Mirfield Tennis Club are proving a real smash - and uncovering some budding tennis players.

New players include Lynne Exley, who had never played tennis before and doesn’t own a racket.

She has discovered she has a natural talent for the game and is thoroughly enjoying the Monday morning session at the tennis club in Memorial Park, Huddersfield Road, Mirfield.

“It’s wonderful,” she said.

Back to Tennis is aimed at adults who have never played tennis but would like to try or who used to play but are rusty.

The emphasis is on fun and meeting new people but at the same time improving tennis skills. The two hour session, from 10am to 12noon, includes an hour of coaching from LTA-qualified coach Simon Newton.

It costs £3.50 per person and includes the use of equipment and coaching, coffee and refreshments.
