Celebrating Disability Tennis Networking Events in Wales
Tennis Wales proudly hosted two regional Disability Charity Networking events at Swansea Tennis Centre and Wrexham Tennis Centre in September 2025. These events mark a significant step forward in our commitment to making tennis accessible and inclusive for all.
Bringing together tennis club coaches, volunteers, and representatives from local disability charities, the events provided a unique platform to build relationships, explore collaboration opportunities, and experience adapted tennis activities in a supportive environment. These events aim to:
- Develop partnerships between tennis clubs and local disability charities
- Increase participation in disability tennis across Wales
- Enhance coach development and confidence in delivering inclusive sessions
- Support Community Inclusive Tennis Club (CITC) growth
- Showcase and trial inclusive and adapted tennis activities
Each event featured hands-on sessions tailored to local needs: Walking Tennis in Wrexham and Wheelchair/Para Standing Tennis in Swansea. Attendees had the chance to try adapted formats, share best practices, and discuss pathways for sustainable, community-led disability tennis sessions.
By fostering new partnerships and building awareness, Tennis Wales is paving the way for a more inclusive future—where everyone, regardless of ability, can enjoy the benefits of tennis.
