Tennis for Visually Impaired People

The Academy Hallamshire logo 

This is a new initiative to enable people with visual impairments to play tennis; it is open to beginners as well as experienced players. If you are interested in trying this out please contact Isobel Dunn whose contact details are below.

The initiative is available at the Hallamshire Tennis Club, which is situated very near Hunters' Bar on Ecclesall Road, with easy access by public transport or by car.

Visually Impaired Tennis currently runs one session each week on a Saturday 3pm to 5pm. The session involves coaching, so people who have never played tennis have a chance to learn the game, and for those who have, a chance to improve their game. The cost of the session is £6 for the two hours and follows the format of 3pm to 4:30pm being coached, then 4:30pm to 5pm a chance to put everything into practice in some free play (the coach still being on court).
