Liverpool International Tournament Beginning in 2002 - one of the most remarkable stories in British tennis - how some of the world's leading players were brought to Liverpool to play in a tournament in a public park! The rest is history - through the vision of Anders Borg and support from Liverpool City Council the tournament has gone from strength to strength and attracted past and present legends of the game. It's now firmly established as a major event on the annual calendar. |  | |
| Cities Tennis Programme Between 1994 and 2004 the award winning Cities Tennis Programme - the UK's first year round inner city programme operated in Liverpool, based at the Wavertree Tennis Centre. It followed examples of similar schemes in the USA in providing a 'safe passge' for young people through to meaningful adult life. The programme introduced over 5000 children to tennis and produced numerous performance players and coaches from its ranks as well as gaining a national and worldwide profile |  | |
