THE
Liverpool
International
Tennis Tournament was
held over 19 June to 22 June 2014, and this time it was at a new
venue, the Liverpool Cricket Club, on Aigburth Road. Attending the
event was Liverpool's sports therapist,
Marcus
Croman
who told us:- "This is a fantastic event. Players and fans are
so relaxed both in public and in privet. I fully enjoy working at
it." With Marcus was Sam Jalloh, who now lives in
Southport and works as a Head Coach at Wainford Tennis Club. He also
said how impressed he was with the facilities and also the people,
adding that this could easily grow bigger and bigger. This same
statement was echoed by the players and by the fans who had turned
out. Also attending the event was Wimbledon Champion, Marion Bartoli,
who delivered a fantastic display of sportsmanship, playing despite
having an injured arm. This is a glowing example of Liverpool at its
best and an essential pre-Wimbledon grass court warm up event, so if
you are a tennis fan, please do book in for next year’s tournament,
via visiting:-
liverpooltennis.co.uk
and and also if you want the results, that site also has them. These
are a few photographs taken over this event.......
