• 3 MINUTE READ
We’re thrilled to announce that Floodlighting & Electrical Services has renewed its partnership with Tennis Wales, enabling the continuation of funding for community-focused initiatives through the Tiebreak Fund.
Specialising in providing tailored lighting and electrical solutions, Floodlighting & Electrical Services excels in the installation and maintenance of floodlighting for sports facilities. Their expertise ensures safe, high-quality environments where sports, including tennis, can thrive throughout the year.
In 2024 Floodlighting & Electrical Services supported part of the Tiebreak Fund, this fund allocated over £31,000 to support 23 projects across Wales. Led by tennis & padel clubs, venues, and non-profit organisations, these initiatives harnessed the power of tennis to bring positive change to local communities.
One standout project was the Ummul Mumineen Academy Girls Sports initiative, which empowered 100 BAME girls from Grangetown and Cardiff Bay to develop within the sporting space by providing culturally sensitive coaching, community-led events, and support for equipment and transport. Another successful programme, Tennis Squad’s Speakeasy Club, ran a summer series of adult drop-in sessions free of charge that focused on physical and mental wellbeing.
This renewed partnership ensures the Tiebreak Fund will continue to back projects like these in 2025, amplifying their impact across Wales.
Simon Johnson, CEO of Tennis Wales, expressed his gratitude for the ongoing collaboration:
"We are thrilled that Floodlighting & Electrical Services is continuing their support of Welsh tennis through the Tiebreak Fund. These essential projects make tennis more accessible to all. Floodlighting & Electrical Services is a wonderful partner that shares in our vision of tennis being for all. We deeply appreciate their dedication to the growth of our sport."
Gareth Thomas, Group Managing Director of Floodlighting & Electrical , “We are proud to extend our partnership with Tennis Wales.
