Welcome to episode three of “The History of Irish Tennis”, my new series with Tom Higgins, author and expert.
Over the course of the series, we will be looking back at various areas of the history of the sport in this country. Join us for this fascinating journey and learn something new.
In the third episode Tom discusses some of the individuals and families that have shaped Irish tennis over the years – from the top players of the early and mid-1900s, to more recent families such as the Nilands and Mileys – as well as famous sporting all-rounders who played tennis. This episode really sets the scene for the development of Irish tennis.
Tom’s three volume book, also entitled “The History of Irish Tennis”, is available to buy for €50 and can be delivered to anywhere in Ireland. Send Tom an email at [email protected] if you are interested or to find out more.
I hope you enjoy this episode and will join us again soon for the next one.
