I had a useful catchup with Issy Michelson from the Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) about park tennis improvement projects that are due to take place across Ruislip, Northwood and Pinner.
This comes as a result of a £30 million joint investment from the LTA and UK Government to refurbish public tennis courts across Britain. I am pleased that a number of local sites in both Hillingdon and Harrow will benefit from this funding, including Pinner Village Gardens and Northwood Recreation Ground.
The investment will see public tennis courts in poor or unplayable condition brought back to life for the benefit of local communities, helping to support a new generation of players to get into the sport.
