Ex Davis Cup duo pop into King’s Ely for coaching session to remember

Posted on 4th Jul 2018 in School News, Sport, Guest speakers

Ex British tennis players Danny Sapsford and Luke Milligan visited King’s Ely to help students improve their skills on the court.

The memorable visit was organised by Seb Scaux, King’s Ely’s tennis coach, who runs the hugely successful 10iS Academy.

King’s Ely students and players from the 10iS Academy enjoyed coaching sessions with the talented ex Davis Cup duo, followed by exhibition matches. Players also had the opportunity to get involved and play doubles matches with Luke and Danny.

The head of tennis at King’s Ely, Chanre Bond, said: ‘Danny and Luke’s visit was a really inspiring event and it was fantastic to see so many players on the court eager to improve their game. Money raised from the event will be going towards various projects, including coaching opportunities for people with autism and learning difficulties. Thank you to everyone who made the event such a great success.’

The 10iS Academy is running a children’s tennis summer holiday camp at King’s Ely, starting on July 30th. For more information, please go to: www.clubspark.lta.org.uk/10isAcademy.
