Story

BE GENEROUS.

Support our enthusiastic team of Ascot Tennis Club volunteers, Fiona Gale, Mark Lejman, Gail Nash and Sam Faulkner who are giving up their time, through the night on 22nd February, to take part in a 24 hour tennis marathon. As our club representatives they are raising funds to help develop our clubhouse, lights and courts into the future so that we continue to have the  great tennis facilities we need to offer coaching at all levels and maintain and grow our club's usage for adults and juniors in our local community.

Please be sure to encourage and thank Gail, Fiona, Sam and Mark when you see them and support them by making a donation to this page. Bright Ideas for Tennis will claim gift aid on any donation you make which, along with your donation will be entirely reinvested in  Royal Ascot Tennis club facilities to benefit you and our local community.  


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 our physical health, but also to aid and maintain mental well-being too.Over the past 6 years, Bright Ideas For Tennis pride themselves on knowing that they have personally coached approximately 8000 players, have raised in excess of £600,000, and have provided a further 5000 hours of free community coaching schemes as a result. Their fundraising events have helped clubs to floodlight existing courts, resurface tired surfaces, and provide disability access / equipment where needed.
