Easton College in Norwich can boast of being the first facility in the UK to have installed the BASF Conipur TF tennis court.

Installed and played upon in Europe for more than 10 years, the system uses approximately 92 per cent recycled material and has been designed to play and respond as a traditional clay court, offering reduced injuries, excellent sliding properties and an even ball response.

BASF Regional Sales Manager Martin Oakes commented: "It is an exciting time for BASF Conica to have the first court of its kind here in the U.K.

"Even prior to completion there was already a huge amount of interest in the system."

In addition to sport and recreation, Easton College offers courses in agriculture, horticulture, equine and animal care, and countryside management.
