The Great Britain Fed Cup captain said neither she nor her sons , Andy and Jamie , had ever experienced an atmosphere like the one at the Emirates Arena at the weekend , where Great Britain beat the US to line up a World Group quarter-final home tie against France . Coming after a huge year for sport in 2014 - in which Scotland hosted the Commonwealth Games and golf 's Ryder Cup - Judy Murray believes there has never been a better time to capitalise on the 'buzz ' about the sport she has worked to promote for 25 years .

Murray was speaking as she prepared to address about 300 young people interested in exploring a career in sports development or coaching at the Dundee Academy of Sport , a project led by Abertay University . The talk included her reflections on her rise from being a volunteer coach in Dunblane to working at tennis 's elite level with her sons and the GB women 's team . Andy Murray celebrates during his win over John Isner that clinched the Brits a quarter-final place . She says it shows huge appetite for tennis in Scotland and highlights massive opportunity for sport to grow . Speaking ahead of the event , she said : ' I was a young mum when I started out volunteering at our local club and we had no track record of success in tennis in Scotland - in fact , we had very little tennis in Scotland and no indoor courts when I started out . 'Now there is a massive , massive opportunity to capitalise on the buzz about tennis that 's been created by Andy and Jamie 's success , and of course I really want to try to grow the game up here . ' Former Wimbledon champion Andy Murray sealed the Davis Cup quarter-final place for Great Britain at the weekend with a straight-sets win over American John Isner . 'The Davis Cup was a phenomenal success , ' said Judy Murray . 'The atmosphere at the Emirates Arena was incredible , there was about 8,000 people there . I 've never seen anything like it and Andy and Jamie said they 'd never played in an atmosphere like that . Murray was quick to stress that Scotland was full of talent but it needed to be nurtured in the right way . James Ward acknowledges the crowd after being forced off injured during day three of the Davis Cup . 'You can see there 's a huge appetite for it in Scotland , and for tennis it 's the perfect time to capitalise . ' She added : 'For them to play it in Scotland was very , very special . I think it was the first time Andy had played in Scotland since he won his Grand Slams . He found it very emotional . ' I think he gets fantastic support from Scotland , but he 's rarely in the country to feel it because when he does something big or is in a big final , obviously he 's not here . ' I think when he walked out and heard that roar , it was goosebumps for him . ' Murray said it is a 'huge time for sport ' following a major 2014 for Scotland . She said : ' I think last year with the Commonwealth Games and the Ryder Cup - massive events in our country , run extremely successfully and extremely popular - and with what we saw last weekend at the Emirates , we have a lot of role models in Scotland and it is the perfect time to invest in sport and physical activity . ' One of the Academy 's aims is to develop the region 's workforce by providing training and professional development to those working in the leisure industry . The importance of growing an accomplished sporting workforce and encouraging more women to think about careers in sport are also topics close to Murray 's heart .

She said : 'Andy and Jamie were just two wee boys from a local club in Dunblane , in a country where there was no track record of tennis , who went on to both win Grand Slam titles . ' I think what that shows is that anything is possible if you have the talent , somebody creates the opportunity and then you work your socks off to get as far as you can . But we 've got to believe and we 've got to be ambitious . 'Nothing is impossible . Do n't accept mediocre . Reach for the stars but keep your feet on the ground . '
