Why is the UK crap at tennis?

Here’s why, it’s all down to the “tennis club” system that operates in the UK.

Tennis clubs are not there to promote competition, they are there as a place for “nice middle class” mothers to put their often “horse faced” female offspring on display under the pretence of “sporting “activity.

The ultimate aim is to pass Susan or Claire off onto some equally unprepossessing Nigel or Simon. It's the British class system at its worst.

The tennis establishment have absolutly no intention of allowing those aggressive inner city kids in on the game, sure they would be winners, but how on earth could any club refuse them entry on the traditional “as we don’t know what standard you play at we would have to play you in” grounds?

And after all some of them might be black! worse still they would never know how to behave in polite company,and as for the rules on tennis whites only God forbid!

Sure we dont win very much, but its all about the right people competing NOT the winning.

No its much better to keep things as they are,your safe clapping that nice Tim and his lovely girlfriend, AND you have no worries about HIM turning up at your club and stealing watches in the changing rooms.
