During her visit, the Duchess of Cambridge will also meet with a group of children, including the United Kingdom’s top junior talents, and other members of the training team including coaches, nutritionists and physical therapists.
An avid tennis player herself, Duchess Kate became patron of the LTA last year after taking over the patronage from Queen Elizabeth II, who had served in the position for 63 years.
