Gosling Sports Park Deaf Tennis Squad – Saturday 7th September!

The monthly tennis coaching for all deaf children aged 3-14 at the Gosling Sports Park has gone from strength to strength, we now have an average of 30 deaf kids of all ages participating.

The next session is on Saturday September 7th from 10.30-12pm. The sessions are coached by both deaf and hearing coaches.

We are delighted and excited to announce that we have a new deaf coach working with us on September 7th –  Cathy Fletcher!  Cathy is the new National Deaf Coach, who also represented Great Britain at the recent Deaflympics in Sofia. Cathy won a Gold medal in the 2009 Deaflympics in mixed doubles and is a National Deaf Champion many times over.
