About the activity
Sensory Tennis provides the opportunity for disabled people with complex needs to take part in tennis based activities in a completely accessible, meaningful and engaging way. Sessions will be tailored to suit individual needs to allow them to experience the sport in a way that is suitable for them. Taking part in these sessions will allow you to develop physical skills such as coordination and balance, whilst also building communication and social skills.
Who is this for?
This activity is suitable for disabled people with complex needs aged 18+. No previous experience is necessary.
Who is the activity leader?
The sessions are led by James Temple, a highly experienced tennis coach who has delivered this session for three years. He is calm, friendly and patient.
