Where are the Marcus Rashfords of British tennis? My fear is, they’re still not welcome | Chris Marshall I’m a coach supporting talented, underprivileged young players – and it’s no surprise so few of them make it to Wimbledon, says tennis coach Chris Marshall

Where would we be without this man? The biggest congratulations to coach Sebastian who has been with G Tennis from the very start. He has won the .tennis Connecting Communities award for 2024 & we’re thrilled 🙌🏽

There couldn’t be a more fitting award for someone who has has helped change the perception of tennis and brought enjoyment for so many around the Stockwell area.

Having such an amazing role model for so many kids that would not see Tennis as a sport for them, Sebastian has been such an instrumental key to all the success we have had.

Congratulations Sebastian we love you 🥰

It was incredibly inspirational to have Naqi Rizvi come and meet the kids for the launch. I cannot tell you how hard it is to try and hit a tennis ball with only sound to guide you. Unbelievably Naqi who is the blind tennis world champion doesn’t have a racket sponsor…. Let’s sort this pls!

The kids absolutely loved trying it out and also thanks to for being a great sport and trying it out too. For the record Qasa was 100% better than coach Chris 😭

.uk can we start a bidding war?!

A massive congratulations to Sabein for winning her group (3/3 matches) and getting through to the last 8 of the U9 county closed 💪🏽🎾👌🏼

Sabein first came to us 3 years ago through an amazing charity that support single parents called Cheer. We spotted the talent and offered cmore sessions at no cost. 3 years later she’s top 8 in Surrey 💪🏽

It just goes to show the talent is out there but how many kids slip through the net due to the cost….

We’re taking a group of the Cheer kids for a holiday to the Yorkshire dales 🙌🏽So many children simply don’t get the chance to leave the borough let alone London, so trips like this are so important. We are volunteering our time but really need help paying for camping, food, petrol….. A huge thanks to school for lending us their mini bus 🙏🏽

Any surplus money will go towards our tennis project & funding more local kids. Thank you 🙏🏽🎾🌈

Throw back from when Catherine first started (before G Tennis) back in 2013/14. These 2 beauts are lovely players and on their way to becoming coaches 💪🏽

With other local clubs & coaches, we have supported their tennis so are incredibly pleased they have found a way to keep playing for almost 10 years! Well done guys and also to dad for being on court helping out in rain & shine.

Tennis balls, puppies….. what else would you find in a coaching trolley?! 🎾🐶??

What would you do with these balls?! 😳

1. Use it as an opportunity to practise hitting an unpredictable ball.

2. Send them back.
