A fantastic day in glorious sunshine came to an end during The Qube Liverpool International Tennis Tournament where Neal and Ken Skupski played their first
Liverpool International Tennis Tournament is back in June, and after the success of last year’s event, organiser Anders Borg is ready to put a spotlight on the city again as one of the top tennis locations, especially for young players.
Liverpool will already host more international junior tennis competitions this year than any other tennis centre in the UK. Anders hopes the three-day event held at Liverpool Cricket Club will be another showcase for up-and-coming talent as well as more established players. And there will be mini tennis events in the city centre as well as a free introduction to tennis session the day before the tournament starts to encourage more kids to take up the sport.
“I know in Liverpool, it’s always going to be hard to compete with football, but all kids should have two sports up to the age of 12 or 13, and we’d like tennis to be their second sport if not their first,” he says.
“That’s why we have events in the build-up to the main tournament to really promote that. We’re going to be running mini tennis lessons in Liverpool ONE, Exchange Flags and also on Castle Street, so we’ll put up mini tennis courts and let kids come and have a go.”
