Throughout January Southdown’s college pupils enjoyed a four week tennis coaching course from Dan Jones, James Green and Adam Player.

Over 50 pupils attended classes throughout the week to learn how to play tennis which will help them achieve their certificate or diploma in sport and leisure.

Wellington College visited Seacourt on the weekend of 2nd and 3rd of March.

17 pupils and teachers enjoyed Seaacourt’s facilities especially the rackets and real tennis and they are looking to make it an annual fixture in their diary.

Over the course of the weekend many hours were spent on the rackets court, real tennis and squash courts and to round off a perfect weekend they enjoyed a famous Seacourt carvery before their trip home.
