Beginner/Improver sessions on Sunday 11-12 & 12-1

14/06/2026

Great to see our beginner session fully booked! Coach Stephen spent 10 minutes with each group before letting everyone put their new skills into practice. We wrapped up with a game of Gas Express—no pressure, plenty of laughs, and lots of fun! 😄

This was followed by our Improver Session, which still has spaces available. If you're thinking about taking the next step, don't be put off—it’s not as difficult as you might think, and it's a great way to build your confidence and develop your game.

Tennis Fun Fact: David Attenborough & Yellow Tennis Balls 🎾

Tennis balls were black or white until the 1970s. When colour TV launched, white balls vanished on screen.

As BBC Two Controller in 1967, David Attenborough pushed for colour coverage of Wimbledon and saw the problem. Tests showed fluorescent “optic yellow” was most visible to viewers.

Yellow balls started to be adopted in 1972, and Wimbledon switched in 1986.

As we celebrate Sir David’s 100th birthday, remember: his TV vision helped make tennis easier to watch for everyone.

While our social tennis sessions are on pause for the winter break, our enthusiastic members are still keeping the courts busy by organising their own games. All four courts were full at lunchtime today — that’s the exact energy we need before Christmas! Merry Christmas Newlands Park CTC ❤️🎾🎄
