With Wimbledon Tennis nearly upon us over 100,000 ëWimbledon Wannabeesí have once again flooded the UKís number one health & leisure job-board, leisurejobs.co.uk, in search of a job on court.
It would appear that the glamour associated with Wimbledon, created by players like Maria Sharapova and Andrew Murray, make jobs on court an alluring career. Leisurejobs.co.uk certainly seem to be serving up the right jobs, for searches for jobs relating to tennis around this period (June-July), increased nearly 10 times during this period last year, and this yearís figures are even higher than 2005, with 14 times the average amount of searches for tennis-related jobs having been made.
David Lloyd, entrepreneur and original founder of the UKís largest health & fitness empire comments, ìI am in no doubt that the popularity of tennis is on the up. Wimbledon always causes a stir at this time of year and aspiring tennis coaches find the idea of getting paid for hitting balls across the court in the summer sunshine very appealing, although this can be the start of a long and enjoyable career. The good news for people who want to work in this industry is that there are an increasing number of jobs out there in order to fulfil the demand from racquet and health clubs such as Next Generation and their members.î
