"I started playing Real Tennis at The Hyde at age 13 following an upbringing in Lawn Tennis. I instantly fell in love with the sport and was thrilled to win both The British Open u18s and The French Open u18s before moving on to study Psychology at The University of Birmingham.
I turned professional in 2018 and have enjoyed valuable experiences working at The Hyde, Radley, Holyport and Oratory before joining Prested in 2023. My world ranking is currently 15 and to date July 2024) my greatest achievement is reaching the final of the Australian Open Doubles. I hope regular practice with Vaughan will help me achieve my goal of one day winning an open singles event.
Vaughan and I are committed to building a welcoming, busy, sociable club that runs a wide variety of events throughout the year. Please do give us a message or pop in to meet us to book a court or take a free introductory lesson!"

"I started playing Real Tennis at Moreton Morrell, in Warwickshire, when I was 12 years old. I instantly took to the game and played regularly as a junior.
After going to University to study Fine Art, I decided I wanted to become a Professional. In 2021, I became the Assistant Pro at Canford Real Tennis Club where I learnt the role of being a Pro and started to improve my game.
I came to Prested Real Tennis Club in September 2023 and have loved working with Levi to make Prested a thriving club. I am enjoying playing lots of national and international tournaments; hopefully more success to come in the future. I have reached my career best handicap recently (July 2024) and was a finalist in the u24 British Open.
Come get involved at Prested and discover how great our game is!"
