Zum Tod von Petr Strobl: Ein Nachruf auf den Meister-Macher des TC Amberg am Schanzl

Mit Petr Strobl erlebte der TC Amberg am Schanzl seine erfolgreichste Zeit im Tennis. "Er war ein genialer Tennistrainer - spielerisch und strategisch", sagt sein Wegbegleiter Dieter Heckmann über den gebürtigen Tschechoslowaken.
