08/09/2018 “Thankfully the rain held off and the sun even came out occasionally, which was great. We had 7 playing and even had 2 or 3 call to say they couldn’t come because of illness, so it would have been more.” We hope everyone who attended the taster day had a great time and we can’t wait to see more of these happen in the future! 15/04/2018 We’d like to thank everyone at the NLTA for inviting us along and we look forward to sponsoring many more days like this. 14/05/2017 We were lucky enough to be invited along to an Inclusive Open Day held by the NLTA at the East Anglia Tennis and Squash The weather stayed fine and there was a great turnout on the day with many people turning up at 12 to join DSActive and coach Derek Perry. The NLTA have informed us that they will be hosting multiple Inclusive Tennis Sessions throughout the year at the Squash Club, the dates can be found below. We can’t wait to see how these sessions will evolve! Inclusive Tennis Sessions: Head over to our Instagram for some exclusive photos from the day! 28/02/2017 We were honoured to be invited to present medals and certificates at the Complex Needs Schools Competition organised by the NLTA. The event took place throughout the day at the UEA sportspark where there was a great turn out with 5 complex needs schools taking part; John Grant, Clare, Hall, Sidestrand and Harford Manor. We were fortunate enough to present all of the children with a certificate and the winners and runners up with a medal to take home for all their hard work. Norma Bowen, Disability Coordinator for the NLTA, had told us that the competition was a great success and they hope to run it again next year. We would like to say a huge thank you to Norma and everyone else who made the competition happen and volunteered to help out. We can’t wait for next year!
