Founded in 1888, the LTA promotes all levels of lawn tennis. The organization believes that tennis can provide "physical, social and mental rewards both on and off the court." The National Tennis Centre (NTC) in Roehampton, south west London, serves as its main training facility. The Princess of Wales has been an LTA patron since 2017. Its first president was seven-time Wimbledon champion William Renshaw.
