Tennis beginners and amateurs can soon be transformed into tennis professionals at the Ekurhuleni Tennis School of Excellence in the New Year.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Loyiso Matsha, a coach at the school stated that although the main focus will still be tennis, the new elements will all help in bettering the student\u2019s skills in the sport.<\/p>\n

Table tennis, boxing fitness training and maths and English enrichment programmes will be introduced.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

\u201cThe fitness classes will assist our tennis players in developing their endurance, as well as footwork,\u201d said Matsha.<\/p>\n

The enrichment programme will target the primary school going students and classes are set to kick-start on January 15.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have realised that some parents are wary of allowing their children to participate in extramural activities because they fear that their children\u2019s studies may start to backslide,\u201d said Matsha.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy seeking the intervention of maths and English tutors we strive to ensure that our students remain on course with their school work and still find enough time to train.\u201d<\/p>\n
