The One with the Gay and Lesbian Tennis Alliance

Commissioner Daniel Merrithew talks tennis and takes us inside the world of the GLTA.

It’s got tens of thousands of members who play right around the world.

In fact, with more than 70 global tournaments each year, the Gay and Lesbian Tennis Alliance may well be the biggest tennis organisation that you’ve never heard of.

Daniel Merrithew is the GLTA’S President and Commissioner – in fact, he’s been in that role longer than anyone else who before him.

It’s a role that takes him across the world, dropping in on the dozens of clubs who are members – and it was Dan’s own experiences in tennis that got him involved in the first place.

So, we get into all of that on the podcast – Daniel’s journey in tennis, the changes he’s seen in the sport, the difference the GLTA has made, Pride Days at the Grand Slams and so much more, all on this episode which we think you’re going to love!
