Wedmore tennis player Finn Bass took part in the LTA’s National Talent ID Day at Roehampton in London.
WEDMORE junior tennis player Finn Bass was put through his paces after taking part in the Lawn Tennis Association’s (LTA) National Talent ID Day held at the National Tennis Centre in Roehampton, London.
The 13-year-old was amongst 39 youngsters from across the country invited to the London session.
Finn, who trains at Bath Tennis Centre, showed off his skills in front of the LTA Talent ID team, who were aiming to spot future performance players.
The Millfield School pupil said: “It is obviously good for my tennis, but it is also really nice to be able to go back and catch up with all your mates. I feel like I am constantly improving though, so I am confident.”
The day was overseen by LTA head of talent management, Andrew Lewandowski, who was impressed by what he saw and said: “Finn has performed really well and shown lots of ability across a number of different tasks designed to test athletic ability, coordination, speed and agility, as well as a real natural talent and love for the sport.
