Firstly, I want you all to know that this has not been any easy message to write or an easy decision to make.
I have decided that my time at Beccles Tennis Club has come to an end and that I will be travelling to America to take some opportunities that have presented themselves for me.
Whilst I’m excited for the next chapter, I am honestly gutted to be leaving. MAX Tennis has been my baby for the past 4 years and has taught me so much.
Words can’t express how grateful I am to everyone who has supported me and attended my tennis sessions. I am really appreciative of those of you who have entrusted me and allowed me to find my identity as a coach whilst always trying to improve their/their child’s tennis. As a young coach, this has allowed me to experiment, find what works (and what doesn’t) in order to get the most out of people and teach tennis in hopefully the most effective way. I can genuinely say that every individual, child or not, has taught me so much. I have watched tennis become a big and hopefully very positive part of people’s lives and I really hope that continues.
I’m really looking forward to enjoying every moment I have left until it’s time for me to go. I will be stopping coaching towards the end of November (I will confirm the date very soon). I will be helping the club to find my replacement as Head Coach and I’m hopeful that a new coach with new ideas will be a great step for the club.

The joy I have gotten from watching every single person work hard, improve and find a love for tennis is immeasurable, but the thing I will miss most is the connections I have made with the children and the parents!
With this in mind I would love to stay in touch, once I leave you are all more than welcome to follow/add my social media profiles. I will also be updating the max tennis instagram to IMK tennis so that I can continue to document my coaching/tennis related activities!
I also would love to plan fun free reunion sessions when I am back in the area visiting my family which hopefully will be relatively regularly. So this is definitely not a total goodbye!

Looking to the future, I’m really excited to keep learning and become the best version of myself I can be, as a coach and as a person.

I really don’t know how to express in words how grateful I am to all of you.
Of course we can catch up about all of this when I see you next!

In other news, I have also sprained my ankle (worlds worst timing) so tennis might look slightly different for the next couple of weeks but I’m going to do my best to not let it have too much of an impact.

Thanks again,

Izzy

The Beccles Tennis Club Committee have designed a short survey, which we will be looking to run on an annual basis, in order to gain a better and common understanding of members’ views about how the club is run, where improvements for the membership of a whole can be made and to share ideas on new potential initiatives.

The survey is anonymous, and whilst there is an option to provide your email address, you don’t have to, and the answers you provide will help us plan and better serve you and the club over the coming year.

We greatly value your honest opinion and feedback and thank you in advance for participating in helping us define the future of our club. Your views are very important to us so please make them heard.

We should also like to take this opportunity to remind everyone that if they wish to join the committee in any capacity then they are more than welcome to. We do have some members who are formally stepping down in March 2023 and therefore we are looking for some new enthusiastic members to help us grow and improve the club for the membership. If you think this might be you, please contact Philip or Craig for further details.

To access the survey please use the link below which will close on 18 October 2022.

We should also like to add that whilst this survey will provide a formal opportunity to all members, the committee are more than happy to receive informal feedback at any time so please do feel free to reach out to any of the members of the committee directly.

With thanks and best regards,

Beccles Tennis Club Junior Championships 2022 ⭐️

9&Under Orange Ball
🥇 Millie Cooper
🥈Luke Mansell
🥉Leo Woolnough

A really fun first competitive experience for our Orange ballers! Massive well done to everyone including Freddie Lane who wasn’t pictured!

11&Under
We had 9 competitors in our 11&under draw. This was the best level of tennis I have seen from this group in a competition with so many close, gutsy matches. Really proud of the progress made within this group of players! Huge well done to everyone!
As pictured Anna Clayton 🥈, Lucy Mansell, Gilly Woolnough, Elliot Seadon 🥇, Austin Long, Arthur Greenwood 🥉, Jonah Bedward, George Lane (not pictured)

14&Under (not pictured)
We had a much smaller draw for a number of reasons in this category. Round Robin matches meant that we ended up with super close results and some great tennis on display!
Elliot Seadon & Anna Clayton 🥇🥇 both winning 3 matches and the exact same number of games!
Lilly Attree & Gilly Woolnough 🥈🥈both winning the exact same number of matches and games!
Great competitive experience for all our MAX Tennis players. 🎾

BTC Most Improved Player of the Year 2022 - Anna Clayton
Anna has always been super dedicated but in the past 6 months she has definitely reaped the rewards of all her hard work. Taking huge strides across the board in her game but most of all in her serve, her concentration and will to win! Anna is a great example to everyone that a positive attitude really can take you a long way! An asset to BTC, great work Anna 😃🎾
