About
My name is Dan Tunstall, I was born profoundly deaf. Tennis has provided an amazing journey for me, from developing skills and confidence as a younger person to traveling the world competing for Great Britain Deaf Tennis making life long friendships along the way.
I would love for others to benefit from similar opportunities and this is the motivation behind Blue Sky Tennis Foundation. The Blue Sky Tennis Foundation is a non-profit community interest company (CIC). All the profits generated from our activities are reinvested back into the community to support disability tennis projects.
My tennis experience includes:
- 20-plus years as a professional tennis coach
- Ex-member of the National Deaf Tennis Squad - 20 years
- Multiple National Deaf Tennis Champion
- Two times Deaflympics bronze medalist - Mixed Doubles
- Former Scotland Junior National training squad
- Scottish Disability Player of the Year award
Our vision
“Make tennis, make a difference”
