From a garden pursuit to the power game we recognise today, discover just how much technology has shaped the modern game of tennis.
The Education Department has a fine collection of replica and real costumes allowing students to chart the progression of tennis attire from the early days of woollen outfits to the more technical fibres used today. With the aid of our collection of vintage rackets, strings and tennis balls, students will discover how the constant re-designing and refining of these three simple things continues to push the technology of the sport forward.
All students will receive a free pack of supporting material which reinforces and expands upon the information given in the talk.
