A look at latest buildup to Battle of The Brits
Scotland v England tennis showdown in Aberdeen next month
Last updated 22nd Nov 2022
Tennis's Battle of the Brits - Scotland v England - is close to selling out with one month to go. The year-end showcase, brought to Aberdeen by Tournament Director Jamie Murray, was originally due to be held in 2021 before COVID-19 meant it had to be rescheduled. It will be played over two days at Aberdeen's TECA with Andy Murray featuring in all three sessions, and starts on Wednesday 21st December.
The evening session of Thursday 22nd December, when Jamie and Andy are due to play doubles, is now completely sold out, with the other two sessions on the evening of the 21st and the afternoon of the 22nd December now very close to being full.
Jamie and Judy Murray paid a visit to Albyn School in the Granite City, where they answered questions from children and led a fun tennis session as part of the Battle of the Brits in the Community programme,
The project was begun by Judy in 2021 and has visited schools, tennis clubs and community centres across Scotland and reached hundreds of people of all ages, with the goal of bringing tennis to all sections of the community.
