Exciting to announce that avid angler David Seaman has become a brand ambassador for Fishing Republic. It’s a perfect partnership.
For David, who lives on the river, alongside the continued pleasure that he gets from ice skating with his wife Frankie, golfing and coaching, fishing plays an important part in his life. It’s a great excuse to enjoy the outdoors and relax. But, how did it all start?
‘I remember going fishing with a couple of my dad’s friends who used to go match fishing on a Sunday. I remember I hadn’t a clue what I was doing. They gave me this rod and I was just holding it at the edge and all of a sudden, the float went under and I didn’t know what to do. I just pointed it at the fish, and it snapped. So that was my first experience of fishing.’
Not only is Fishing Republic teaming up with David, but he will also be representing Westlake; Westlake Fishing Gear For Sale | Fishing Republic
Westlake is a fishing brand exclusive to Fishing Republic. It’s primarily aimed at beginners, encouraging new people to join the sport. They specialise in making gear that is accessible to all, regardless of budget and experience.
Working with our longstanding partners in South Africa, we had the pleasure of booking and escorting Miles MacLagan to Pretoria for a tennis coaching camp that was part of the 2022 Africa Cares Tennis Challenge.
Miles, the former coach of Andy Murray and Laura Robson amongst other stars, as well as being a Davis Cup player, was selected to lead a two day coaching clinic that was run at the fantastic facilities at the University of Pretoria.
The two day coaching series focused on helping young tennis players (14 – 16) sharpen their talents and improve their tennis skills, and help SA coaches on how they can successfully navigate their coaching careers and cultivate their tennis coaching skills.
The Africa Cares Tennis Challenge will take place in December featuring names including; Venus Williams, Martina Hingis, Iga Swiatek, Simona Halep and Sloane Stephe.
Alongside the coaching sessions Miles undertook a raft of media interviews, and we managed a trip to watch a rugby clash between the Bulls & the Lions.
