🎾 Tennis Shines at the Ignite Multi Sport Festival!
On Wednesday 28th May, the Ignite Multi Sport Festival lit up Oasis Academy Brislington with a fantastic afternoon of inclusive sport and community fun. Despite the breezy weather, the sunshine and spirit were in full swing as over 130 Bristolians joined us to get active and try out new sports—especially tennis!
Our incredible coaching team – Pete Caseley, Jonny Fenner, Helen Abbot, and Rachel Cockcroft – delivered non-stop, drop-in tennis sessions tailored for pan-disability children, adults, and families. From neurodivergent to d/Deaf and visually impaired (VI) participants, the courts were full of energy, smiles, and fantastic rallies all afternoon.
A huge thank you to everyone who took part or supported the event. It was a brilliant celebration of accessible sport, and we can’t wait to do it all again soon! 🙌
Pete and Rachel both run weekly Acez Tennis sessions, supported by Access Sport, at their Tennis Club. Click on the links below to find out more information
