NET 360 CIC

That’s our final week of Summer Rackets Camp over and out!

We’ve had an absolute blast over the four weeks with a fantastic bunch of young people.

We are loving our new base of Whitley Bay High School Sports Centre. It gives us the space and flexibility to introduce so many different racket sports and team games to our participants. It’s just a short walk from our home of Beverley Park Lawn Tennis Club , so everyone gets the chance to play tennis on beautiful courts. And we don’t have to stress if the weather is bad!

Huge thanks to our amazing team of coaches, assistants and Tennis Leaders! And to the wonderful Julia from Julia @ Fun Little Foodies Morpeth, childrens cookery classes for her delicious and colourful lunch workshops.

Finally thank you to NT Participation and Advocacy for funding some of the spaces through the Holiday Activities and Food programme.

Same time next year everyone! 😀

More congratulations to our superstar coaching team 😀🤩! Eloise, Belle, Will and Marla all smashed their GCSEs 👊🥳. They are also currently studying to become LTA accredited Level 1 assistants. Marla is going on to study Sports Coaching at Newcastle College!

And Izzy, fresh from A-levels has already started an apprenticeship as a Healthcare Support Worker 🤩.

We are bursting with pride! 🎉

Week 4 of summer camp and we were glad to have a nice cool sports hall to take cover in 🥵.

Loads of fun team games to help friendships bloom and develop agility and co ordination, tennis at Beverley Park Lawn Tennis Club as well as badminton, pickleball, rounders and lots more!

Big shout out to our coaching team, which includes young Tennis Leaders who we are supporting to develop important life skills every day 🤩.

One more week to go…in the meantime check out our Summer Saturday Pay As You Play sessions for juniors and adults (see web link in bio ⬆️).

Huge congratulations to our superstar instructors Chloe and Stephen on achieving fantastic A-level results! 🥳🤩

We are in no way surprised given how committed and hardworking they are on court. Chloe is off to uni to do Biomedical Engineering and Stephen is going to uni to study Dentistry.

Wishing them continuing success from all of the NET 360 team. 💪🌈

Our summer term came to a Wimbledon themed close with strawberries and cream to celebrate all of our fantastic Youth players 🤩! 🍓🎾

Our Girls Only participants did some brilliant fact finding research on their chosen female Wimbledon players, and we held our own fun tournaments. Congratulations to all competitors and to our Players of the Term, who get to take the trophy home over the summer.

We will be running Summer Saturday Pay as You Play sessions over the school holidays for Tots, under 11s, over 11s and adults. Visit the website to book your space.

And we still have a few spaces left on our holiday camps, which start on Monday and run during weeks 1,2,4 & 5 of the school holidays. 😀

Free spaces still available on our rackets camp next week for children eligible for free school meals!

Our last summer Sunday at Rockcliffe before the holidays, and what better way to spend it than in the sunshine having our own Wimbledon final, complete with strawberries and cream! 🍓🎾😍

Congratulations to all of our youth players on a fantastic term. 🤩

🎾 LIVE AT WIMBLEDON! 🏆

Teddy is on Court 6 RIGHT NOW playing her first round Junior Doubles at Wimbledon — and she is doing brilliantly, holding her serves with real composure on the big stage! 🇬🇧

So proud watching her compete at the All England Club. This is what years of hard work and dedication look like. 💪

Keep it going Teddy — we are all behind you! 🎾❤️
