Bathurst will play hosts to the Western Region Academy of Sport tennis squad this Friday for an intensive training day. Athletes from across the region will arrive at the Bathurst Tennis Centre at 9am for a full day of training. The squad consists of some of the most talented tennis stars of the future from towns such as West Wyalong, Forbes and Trundle and Bathurst’s own Greg Lynch and Kurt Johns. The athletes will take part in various training drills and games as they focus on improving their court speed, shot selection and game tactics, as they look to follow in the footsteps of Lleyton Hewitt and Casey Dellacqua! This training is getting the squad ready for the JDS tournament in Orange on February 3. Head Coach Andrew Mitton said “It’s a good opportunity for the players to get back focused on their tennis after the Christmas break, and tune up for the Orange tournament.” Local tennis players, coaches and spectators are welcome to attend the training session which will provide a great opportunity to witness the latest training techniques and drills.
