This will be a very busy day that covers all aspects of racket servicing for either TENNIS or SQUASH. Suitable for complete beginners wishing to grasp the skills and knowledge properly or for experienced stringers wishing to upgrade their their existing skills/knowledge and achieve the UKRSA Certification of TENNIS STRINGER or SQUASH STRINGER. Starts at 9.30am and finishes at 5.30pm. Your course tutor will be Liam Nolan, UKRSA Founder & Technical Director. Former Wimbledon head stringer & England Squash Coach.

We will be using manual and electronic machines. Bring along your own rackets to work on if you wish as that may be possible, though we will have a full range of assorted rackets for use. Your course fee includes one years UKRSA membership so that you can access the UKRSA Technical Forum and share all sorts of information. If you wish to bring your own machine to work on let me know in advance and arrive by 9am. I can check it out for you and perhaps re-calibrate the tensioning if its a manual type. All materials provided.

We will cover a very wide range of tasks such as string constructions, choosing the correct string and tensions, gripping, grip enlarging, string patterns, grommet replacement, stencilling, assorted weaving methods, tools and their uses, machine types, running a successful stringing service and lots more. Its YOUR day and a chance to ask as many questions as you wish! Pen and notebook will be handy.

Please bring your own food and drinks in case the clubs cafe & bar is not open. There is no “Final Test” but hopefully all course members will be receiving the certificates at the end of the course. Anyone unable to achieve the levels of skills and knowledge on the course can attend any further course for free to get up to the right standards.
