The Tennis Centre today welcomes two new additions to the team, Richard Shapcott (left) and Andrew Johnson (right).


This is the first expansion of the blog and we hope to bring you even more interesting and insightful posts.
Richard, 22, represented Wiltshire as a junior and his highest rating was 3.2. He still plays tennis on a regular basis while studying for an interactive media degree. His favourite tennis player of all time is Tim Henman who he thinks is better than Andy Murray. The last time I played Richard he crumbled as I beat him 6/3 6/3 6/0.
Andrew, 21, plays for his local club and is an expert when predicting the outcome of matches. He once put a tenner into his Betfair account and built it up to £850 after an unbelievable run. Away from sport he has just completed a Film, TV and Radio degree at Staffordshire University. His favourite player is Fernando Verdasco.
