The UK’s largest community tennis centre is looking to get more Nottingham people onto court this summer with an exclusive free tennis offer.

A successful summer of tennis rounded off by a dramatic victory for Great Britain at Sunday’s Davis Cup has seen heightened interest in the sport in Nottingham and beyond.

Mike Wisner, Chief Operating Officer at Nottingham Tennis Centre has decided, on the back of the Davis Cup outcome and recent tennis success in Nottingham, to open up the courts to make tennis accessible to people of all ages and abilities.

Mike who is Australian is keen to create a buzz around Tennis at the centre. He said, “The semi-finals of the Davis Cup will see my home country go head to head against Great Britain.” This is an exciting time for tennis and I think we can keep the sport in the spotlight by welcoming people onto our courts with an offer that is too good to miss.”

Cllr Trimble Portfolio Holder for Leisure and Culture “This week sees the Nottingham Tennis Centre host the inaugural World Deaf Tennis Championships, its fourth major tennis tournament this summer. Having hosted such prestigious tennis events, Nottingham Tennis Centre is now turning its attention to highlighting the opportunities for local people to play tennis.

“We want to remove the barriers to playing tennis and with the various tennis activities for children, adults and families planned over the summer, people who may have never tried the sport or haven’t played in years can pick up a racket and try tennis for fitness or fun.“
