Peter Olbison

What years were you a Ball Boy?

1961 to 1964

What courts did you look after, what age were you?

Way outside up to number 1. Not happy I didn't make Centre. I blamed Nixon!

Did you enjoy the task and why?

It was great. The lunch with that fantastic cheese cake, the bon-bons, strawberries, the cash from the used ticket boxes, selling balls and most of all the camaraderie.

Did anything unusual/funny happen whilst you were on court?

Mark Cox won a game on aces. I had to jump around to avoid being hit but failed on one serve. After the match he smiled at me, apologised and gave me his sweat band without my asking for it.

Which player did you most enjoy meeting and why?

Can't remember

Who is your favourite tennis player today?

Andy Murray even though he's Scottish.

Do you play tennis now and if so do you belong to a club?

Haven't played for 4 years.

Would you like to add any further information?
