THIS summer free tennis coaching courses will be held for children as part of the legacy of Great Britain’s victory in the Davis Cup.

Courses under the Tennis for Kids programme will be held at Penarth LTC, Penarth Windsor LTC and Dinas Powys TC.

Some courses are fully booked, but waiting lists are being operated.

“We have had a lot of success in enthusing kids about tennis, but Tennis for Kids takes this a step further, with a free programme to get even more youngsters involved,” said Tennis Wales chief executive, Peter Drew.

“What better legacy for Team GB’s Davis Cup victory than to enthuse a new generation of players?”

People of any age wanting to try tennis are being encouraged to “Go Hit It” – by visiting gohitit.com to find a venue where they can play.
