Tennis Wales are the National Governing Body for tennis in Wales. We’re a not for profit organisation affiliated with the LTA and work in partnership towards a vision of ‘tennis opened up’ in Wales. In partnership with our sponsors and Sport Wales, we work collaboratively to make tennis relevant, accessible, welcoming and enjoyable.

We have created new partnerships with Cardiff Met University and Wrexham Tennis Centre which will see this new Coach Development Centre, created specifically for Wales, training and supporting hundreds of new and existing tennis coaches. The new landscape will allow for dedicated support to service the needs of the local workforce and enable closer links to deployment opportunities across the country.

Our aim is to provide a clear and transformative pathway for coaches to develop and achieve their potential.
