Trailblazers in the News


The Tennis Foundation was in the public eye again in September when one of our Trailblazers, John-Paul Llano, appeared in a BBC news programme.

John-Paul continues to climb the ladder of his tennis career and has recently been offered a place at Reeds School in Oxshot.

The School has a reputation for tennis, and was once home to Britain's Number One, Tim Henman. John-Paul appeared on Newsroom Southeast to talk about his excitement at being offered a place at Reeds.

We were also in the news a little earlier in the year when three of our Trailblazers appeared in television news programmes to talk about their love of tennis and their involvement with the Tennis Foundation. Click on the icons to play the clips. (requires Real Player)

Trailblazing twins Daniel and Martin Regan have taken tennis by storm in their home county of Yorkshire. Martin is ranked number 1 and Daniel number 2 and both have played at the under 10s International Tennis Academy. The twins were interviewed on 'Look North' and clearly have a bright future ahead in tennis.

Melanie McKenzie is one of our star Trailblazers and competes in many tournaments and events. From county level, playing for the West of Scotland, she quickly progressed to playing for the National Squad and her talents were recently highlighted in a television news programme, also featuring an appearance from Sir Cliff.
