MAKING TENNIS FUN


Judy has coached many young successful tennis players. She’s also a tireless campaigner for getting more children off the sofa and into sport. For instance her charity, the Judy Murray Foundation, is helping to bring tennis into rural and disadvantaged areas in her native Scotland.


One of her most important coaching tips is that learning tennis – or any sport for that matter – has to be fun.


“Make it fun for kids,” she says2. “Play


actively with your children. This does not need expensive equipment.


“Try to make up games that involve co- ordination and exercise and which can be played indoors on rainy days.


“You can use cushions, soft balls or whatever else takes your fancy to engage the kids. You will be surprised at how much you enjoy it.”


There’s nothing quite as good at lifting your mood as an invigorating walk. (The Sunday Post)
