Thu 26 May 2022 14:10
Huge congratulations to the University of Sheffield Tennis Club, who claimed the prestigious University of the Year at the LTA Annual Tennis Awards in May.
The accolade went to the university after a huge growth in membership and participation over the past few years. The student volunteer led club has 300 members, double the previous record, and a boom in membership has seen the formation of two mens and one womens development squads.
Professional coaching is now offered to social members and the amount of available weekly court hours has increased by 130%.
The club were announced as the winner by tennis players and doubles pairing Olivia Nichols and Alice Barnett at a live stream awards ceremony presented by LTA President David Rawlinson and hosted by LTA Head of Men;s Tennis, Leon Smith.
