A charity ‘Tennis-a-thon’ event will take place at Busby Lawn Tennis Club next weekend to raise money for Young Lives vs Cancer.

The all-day event on October 26 will feature a number of tennis-themed games and entertainment, as well as face painting, teas and coffees, and a raffle. A special guest from Tennis Scotland will also be in attendance.

The fundraiser is partly inspired by the generous support that Young Lives vs Cancer has offered to a junior member of the club currently going through treatment for leukaemia.

The online fundraising page has already raised over £2600. Donations can be made at: https://fundraise.younglivesvscancer.org.uk/fundraisers/busbylawntennisclub.

The tennis-a-thon will take place from 9am to 8pm at Busby Lawn Tennis Club on October 26. All are welcome to attend.
