Next Generation, the racquets and health club chain, has announced a new partnership with international tennis coach Oscar Wegner and his Modern Tennis Coaching Academy (MTCA).
MTCA will introduce Wegner’s ‘modern tennis’ methods to Next Generation clubs by initiating a phased development programme, which will train racquets coaches as MTCA instructors.
To launch the partnership, Next Generation group racquets manager Ross Matheson – who is spearheading the campaign – has arranged for Wegner to host an event at the chain’s Hatfield club on 26 September, which will be attended by all of Next Generation’s racquets managers and MTCA personnel.
“The UK is full of great athletes who have a real desire to excel,” said Matheson. “With the right techniques, those players will flourish and prosper. I have seen Oscar in action and there is no doubt that with his system we can improve players of all standards in our clubs.”
