Story


Our school are taking part in the Bright Ideas for Tennis 24hr Marathon. Raising funds to help expand the BIFT disability tennis programme, 'I Play 30'. 

We will be playing at the National Tennis Centre, Roehampton, from 18-19th September, and will be hitting with a selection of GB Davis Cup and Fed Cup players.

BIFT's Charity Story

'The main goal of Bright Ideas for Tennis is to encourage more people to play more tennis. Our fantastic sport has been medically proven to not only improve ones physical health, but also to aid and maintain ones mental well-being.

We currently operate 'I Play 30' sessions at 20 venues across 9 counties of the UK. All venues provide a minimum of 1 hour of free tennis per week to local SEN schools / community support groups. Feedback from coaches, teachers and volunteers has been fantastic, and it is very apparent that our sessions are proving physically, mentally, emotionally and socially beneficial to all participants.'

Ben, Elliott, Ben, Charlie, Dylan, James, Seb and Kianu are the 8 Fourth Formers taking on the challenge.

Thank you for your donations, they really are appreciated!
