“A new year brings with it new challenges and we strive to bring out the best in all our players and ensure that they finish the year better than when they started,” said Ncube.

While discussing his plans for the new year, the founder of NGT mentioned that the organisation’s focus will be on his students participating in more competitions to ensure ultimate preparation. “We are not planning on changing our formula, but we are focusing on building the vision. We look to encourage players to compete more. A lot of players take lessons but don’t really get into a competitive environment. So, we are looking to grow our number of competitors even with players outside of NGT,” said Ncube.

“In the next five years, Next Generation Tennis will be a premium event host. We have programmes in the pipeline that are geared towards inviting international players from all levels and this will foster a culture of competition beyond borders and give opportunities to more players rather than a select few,” concluded Ncube.
