About
Our organisation, Inverclyde Community Tennis Initiative (in practice shortened to Tennis Inverclyde), is a non-profit making organisation that is committed to promoting tennis and short tennis throughout the Inverclyde area.
Our Working Group includes representatives from the local tennis clubs, Inverclyde Council (through its Active Schools Team) and Inverclyde Leisure.
Currently the Working Group is comprised of:
 |
Chris Jewell, Chairman and Treasurer |
 |
Andy McGilp, Development Manager (Inverclyde Leisure) |
 |
Jim Lyon, Co-ordinator (Ardgowan Tennis Club) |
|
Guilio Spella (Inverclyde Active Schools) |
|
Susan Faint (Fort Matilda Tennis Club) |
Each person is elected to serve for an initial period of three years and thereafter can be re-elected for additional period of three years. Tennis Inverclyde is self funding, with income coming largely by way of grants from local and national funders, sponsorship from local businesses and individuals, fees for activities run and fundraising organised by the organisation.
We use qualified tennis coaches and helpers and are always on the look out for others who would like to get involved in tennis coaching locally. If that is you, please email us and let us know who you are.
All our coaches operate with full disclosure in terms of current child protection legislation.
