Seeking volunteers to produce internet radio broadcasts of summer challengers


Hi everyone. I know that I am new here, but I have a proposal for everyone here: could ourselves, as British tennis fans, be a bit more proactive and have some fun as well? Would others be interested in banding together and producing a radio broadcast of, say, the semifinals/finals of the summer challengers (Surbiton, Felixstowe, Manchester, Nottingham) over the internet? All it takes is a laptop and a couple of microphones. If we can get a team of 4-5 people interested in learning some broadcasting skills and chatting about tennis, this really could be viable. This will be strictly on a volunteer basis. If enough people express an interest in this topic this weekend, I will call a meeting in London next weekend to meet in person and develop this project further. Thanks all, Steve. For an American example of this, see radiotennis.net.

Sounds like a great idea if you know how to sort it out logistically. We could be the mutant Kens - i.e. the ones who get our facts right. smile.gif

It'll be awesome if you guys manage to do this. I don't think that the LTA will do anything about Livescores in the next two years...

Sorry, not enough interest. Maybe I'll post the idea again another time?

Yeah I think it's definately something to try and do for the future and would be great fun, great idea !

I would have put my name forward but I wouldn't be able to make Felixstowe or Surbiton this year or be able to attend meetings about the project due to my A level exams. I think the same is true for some others like mkkreuk who's also in year 13. I'll definately be up for it in 2008 or maybe later this year for some of the indoor challengers ??
