With the aid of several generous donations from members, the club has bought a defibrillator.
It will be installed soon.
A training session for its use has been arranged for Wednesday 29th May at 7pm in the clubhouse.
We would like as many members as possible to attend – you never know when it may have to be put into use.
4 years ago our own member David Straker would have died on court playing in a tournament in London were it not for one of these machines.
"Defibrillation is a common treatment for life-threatening cardiac dysrhythmias, ventricular fibrillation, and pulseless ventricular tachycardia. Defibrillation consists of delivering a therapeutic dose of electrical energy to the affected heart with a device called a defibrillator. This depolarizes a critical mass of the heart muscle, terminates the dysrhythmia, and allows normal sinus rhythm to be reestablished by the body's natural pacemaker, in the sinoatrial node of the heart."
Cardio Tennis, Seb Coe, Olympic Legacy
Club has been awarded £500 from the 2012 Olympic Legacy.
This money will be used to set up & run Cardio Tennis Sessions for members, starting this summer.
"...Cardio Tennis is a fun, group, fitness activity for players of all ages and abilities. It's not about forehands and backhands, it's about training in your zone, burning lots of calories and having fun!"
Alex put together the successful application & here he is in action haranguing his Lordship. Outstanding.
