Resurrecting Hingham Tennis
Live interview with Jonathan Lindner and Lindsey Read
9th March from 7:30 - 8:30pm (UK time)
Hingham Tennis in Norfolk is no ordinary club. In fact, they don't like to call themselves a 'club'! This is a classic 'phoenix from the flames' story of how a run-down facility became LTA Club of the Year through the vision, hard work and dedication of small group of tennis parents.
We're talking to two of those who managed the project, LTA Coach Jonathan Lindner and tennis parent Lindsey Read, and listeners will have the chance to ask questions in this one-hour session.
We'll discuss:
- How the vision for Hingham Tennis came about
- The different steps, the highs and lows of the project
- How a group of like-minded people with a vision can work together
- How Hingham Tennis operates
- Ideas which you may be able to implement in your facility now or in the future
If you’re a tennis club committee member or tennis manager, if you run or have an ambition to run your own facility, or if you just love a great tennis story, you cannot afford to miss this interview.
Why Strength & Conditioning Should be a Part of Your Practise: Returning to Tennis Injury Free
Live interview with Howard Green and Simon Brundish
Thursday 25th March from 7:30 - 8:30pm (UK time)
Many players focus their tennis practise and play on, well, tennis! However, as players and athletes in any sport – not only tennis – can attest, you ignore strength and conditioning at your peril. We interview Howard Green, Head of Sports Science at Bolton Arena and one of the UK’s most respected and experienced Strength & Conditioning coaches, so that he can explain the benefits of regular strength and conditioning to helping prevent injury – particularly as we get back on court after lockdown.
Amongst other things, Howard answers:
- How do you think lockdown has affected young tennis players physically?
- What can they do to help prepare themselves for return to play?
- Any particular injuries you have seen or would expect?
- How much tennis would be suitable on return?
- Is there anything in particular tennis coaches should be wary of?
In his 11 years as a tennis-specific athlete development coach Howard Green has worked with ATP, WTA, Junior ITF & TE players - including a world number one player. Howard is an accredited Strength & Conditioning Coach (UKSCA), a Certified Tennis Performance Specialist (ITPA) and a former Royal Marines Commando. Most recently he’s developed Tennis SuperMovers, an innovative programme to help young players access strength and conditioning exercises anywhere.
The session is aimed at players, parents of junior players and coaches.
If you have a question you’d like to ask Howard and Simon, please submit your question in advance.
