My First Award!

Many thanks to the Epsom rotary Club for presenting the award and for their time & support.

On 4th September 2010, Epsom Rotary Club presented Jason Barnett with his award for Most Supportive Team Manager at the Surrey Youth Games.  The trophy wasn'tquite ready at the end of the Games, hence a delay in presentation. Past President Harry Corben our Vocational Service committee chairman met up with Jason at Alexandra Recreation Ground, where Jason's tennis career really began. Tennis was a new sport at the Surrey Youth Games for 2010 and a Team Manager was needed.  After struggling to find a coach, Jason stepped up to the challenge.  His tennis pathway began when he joined the Tennis For Free scheme at Alexandra Recreation Ground.  Since then he has gone on to gain his Tennis Level 1 Coaching Certificate.  Jason enthused all the tennis participants with his infectious personality and motivation and on the day of the Games his team won a bronze medal.  All the team members went away having had a great time at the Surrey Youth Games.Source http://www.rotary-ribi.org/clubs/homepage.asp?ClubID=874
