Invitation to Tennis Ireland Participation & Club Development Provincial Workshops 2016
Apr042016
“More Players, more Income, More Fun”
The Tennis Ireland Participation and Club Development Strategic Objective aims to assist Clubs to increase their membership by 20% by 2020, creating an extra €2.4million through additional subscriptions. This includes: extra 12,000 members at an average sub of €200 = €2.4m. Clubs to receive €2.2m, Provinces €100,000 and Tennis Ireland €100,000. We project an extra income to coaches totalling €600,000.
At the recent workshop at DCU in February 2016, 60 delegates from across Ireland attended and this was a good start to the engagement process. All Branch, Club Committee members, Coaches, Development Officers, Tournament Officials and Parks Tennis Officials are now invited to come along to the Leinster Tennis/Tennis Ireland Participation and Club Development Provincial Workshop. Everyone is welcome as we seek to engage, exchange information and gain ideas to help clubs develop tennis.
