Andy Murray says he wants Tennis Scotland to deliver on plans to build 10 new indoor facilities in the next five years.

The governing body aims to develop a lasting legacy from the success of Andy and brother Jamie.

Chairman Blane Dodds is to submit proposals to funding partners in a bid to realise the project.

"It's important to capitalise on the momentum we have just now in British tennis," Murray told BBC Scotland.

"There's a lot of positive stuff going on.

"We haven't been in this position for a very long time, so it's a good opportunity to try to inspire some kids and get more of them into the sport.
