And indeed we are taking bookings for next Strictly Come Juniors Tennis Camp in Easter school holidays in April 2022. Also, contact LineBall for adults wanting private and group lessons.
Please email: Krishna at lineball@talktalk.net in the first instance.
AT ALL TIMES ALL TENNIS JUNIORS WERE RISK-MINIMISED IN RED-WARNING WINDS BY KEEPING WITHIN BOUNDS OF "CAGED" PROTECTION OPEN SPACE COURTS (as in above picture).
