Following hot on the heels of 2014’s Search for Tennis Aces during which Laura Robson discovered the budding stars Jacob Kelly and Abby Kelliher from the thousands of entries, we’re kicking off our 2015 Nationwide search for two new Tennis Aces – one boy and one girl.

 

We’re keen to help find the talent of the future so we’ve opened the competition to both members and non-members, so if you know a tennis superstar in the making, sign them up now! Entrants need to be 5-8 year-olds and they will be put forwards in a program of talent spotting involving regional events followed by a national final. With a chance to win a 3 year tennis scholarship and 3 year family membership

 

It’s all part of our Active Aces programme for 3–11 year olds, designed in partnership with the LTA, helping inspire the next generation of tennis players

YOUR CHANCE TO PLAY RICHARD BRANSON IN HIS OWN BACK YARD.

 

 

There could be a place in the 2014 Necker Cup with your name on it.

 

This November, you could be jetting off to the Caribbean to face Sir Richard and tennis superstars such as Bjorn Borg, Boris Becker and Marion Bartoli across the net on Necker Island. The Necker Cup is the world's most exclusive pro-am tournament, and we'll be sending two of our members – one man and one lady – to take part.

 

If you fancy the trip (and a game) of a lifetime, make sure you don't miss out. We're holding in-club and national tournaments this autumn to find the two lucky members who'll join the jet set on Necker.
