Our Story

Why did we start We Do Tennis ?

Nigel was running a national tennis coaching company, which he had grown to over 40 venues and one of the most respected coaching providers in the industry. On one club visit Nigel sat in a small, miserable clubhouse and looked around at how poorly things were being done. The coaching programme at that venue was great, with over 200 children on four courts. The clubhouse had posters out of date, honours boards not completed, it could not even fill two of its courts for a club social. It was the realisation that tennis clubs needed help! 


Matt & Nigel went to University together, started coaching at David Lloyd Teesside and have always been great friends. Nigel has even been best man at two of Matt’s weddings! The two of us discussed Nigel’s role and tennis club support over a few beers.


The next week – Matt surprised Nigel with a call and just said – “Lets do this!”, do what?  "Let’s do tennis venues, but better". This was a major shock as Nigel is always the one with loads of ideas and goes off in crazy tangents. Matt is the sensible one. No risks.


We think the contrasting styles of us both is what makes We Do Tennis work, along with the great people of course. Matt oversees the ‘boring’ stuff and responsible for keeping Nigel on track. Difficult job.
