We have football in Edinburgh, men's and women's; we have rugby here, too. We have cricket and marathons, a pretty famous baseball club and we're home to Caledonia Pride, the only women's basketball team in all of Scotland. We have festivals and celebrations and plenty of cultures...
But Edinburgh is not known for its association with tennis. That's quite a shame because tennis has long held a prominent place in Edina's sports scene.
As though to underscore that fact, Edinburgh is home to champion tennis brothers, Andy and Jamie Murray. Gordon Reid, Grand Slam champion and Paralympic Gold medal winner, also makes his home here. By the way, Mr Reid is currently ranked Number 1 in the world in Doubles and #4 in Singles.
In short, nobody can say that tennis and Edinburgh are strangers; there's a lot of tennis excitement to be had here. You just have to know where to look for it.
The weather in Edina is generally mild but wet, which makes playing tennis outdoors rather challenging. Luckily, there are many indoor tennis courts; these have the added benefit of being well-maintained and accessible. Also, you can find indoor tennis courts with a variety of surfaces, from clay to concrete.
One of the best aspects of tennis in Edinburgh is its accessibility. The Lawn Tennis Association, the sport's governing body that oversees hundreds of tennis facilities across the UK maintains more than 150 accessible tennis courts in and around Edinburgh. Additionally, the Advantage Tennis programme offers an array of opportunities to become involved in the disability tennis scene.
For tennis players who've gotten good at their game - be it singles, doubles or wheelchair, and want to move into competitive tennis, there are five tennis leagues to provide a gateway to higher levels of competition.
Tennis enthusiasts of all ages and abilities are well served in Edina; they can find any number of venues and court surfaces to play in/on and, with active support from the LTA, including training and certifying tennis coaches, little stands between Edinburghers and their love of tennis, quiet though it may be.
Some people, upon deciding that they want to try something new, go all out. Prospective tennis players with that mindset might rush to buy their tennis whites and shop around for rackets, balls and sun visors. Unfortunately, some find that tennis isn't for them, after all, and they're left with all the gear and, perhaps, an expensive club membership they no longer have any use for.
Ashleigh Barty, the current Women's Singles Tennis champion and Wimbledon winner, walked away from tennis for a number of years before deciding to give it one more try. She is proof that it's not so unusual to have second thoughts about your choice of sport.
In matters that demand an investment, it's best to see whether you'll get your money's worth.
Before rushing out to buy your equipment, take the time to find out whether tennis is right for you. You may interview a tennis coach at a tennis club, maybe for a small fee, or contact a Superprof tennis coach to talk things over. Most likely, as you're undecided, the tennis club will offer you a trial membership. As for rackets and balls, they will probably have some to lend you.
Your Superprof tennis coach will also have spare rackets and balls.
Besides teaching you the rules of the game and how to hit the ball consistently, your Superprof tennis coach will also assess your level of fitness and, if you ask, can also pass on diet and nutritional information.
Don't be surprised if, before ever touching a racket, your coach takes you through some strength training and flexibility drills. They have to assess how fit you are and whether your level of fitness is suitable for vigorous tennis play.
Whether you prefer an LTA-certified tennis coach or are comfortable volleying balls back and forth with a Superprof tennis coach, learning how to play tennis in Edina is sure to boost your fitness and activity levels, as well as provide ways to meet new people and have fun.
