Andy Murray was joined by four London children on Wednesday 7 July as he taught them his unique warm up act of Tennis Football at the National Tennis Centre in Roehampton.
The Tennis Football event was set up by Highland Spring (Andy’s exclusive drinks sponsor) to celebrate his success at Wimbledon.
Andy and his coach, Miles Maclagan taught pupils from St Mary’s Church of England Primary School, Putney the basics of Tennis Football.
The game is Andy’s unique way of warming up before matches. He said: “I love tennis and football so they are the perfect combination to get me warmed up before playing. The game tests your reactions and footwork although the pressure is off as we aren’t playing for any dares or forfeits. The kids have picked it up really quickly - they’ve obviously been watching plenty of Wimbledon and the World Cup.”
