Tennis Zimbabwe to hold Level One coaching course

Tennis Federation development officer for Southern Africa, Riaan Kruger, and Zimbabwe’s Prince Madema.
The course will see 24 coaches taking part and the first three days will be dedicated to the Play and Stay programme for 30 trainees drawn from across the country.
“The course is being funded by the Olympic Solidarity through the Zimbabwe Olympic Committee. There is going to be the Play and Stay (introduction to tennis) for 30 trainees from all over the country. The first three days will be for the ‘Play and Stay’ and the 30 participants will drop out after that while the 24 coaches continue with coaching course,” said Nhokwara.
Nhokwara said such courses are vital for the development of the sport.
“A lot of the participants are former players trying to venture into tennis coaching. They are now formalising their skills by applying the right skills.”
