Open Court Sessions launches as the Australian Open is in full swing, and encourages people to come together over great food, drink and music, with a social hit of tennis on the side.
Hitting up more than 1000 clubs across all states, including Kiama Tennis Club. Open Court Sessions introduces tennis with a contemporary twist. There's no longer the need to join a club, sign up for lessons or commit to a weekly competition.
Instead players can participate in a range of dynamic tennis activities, putting a spin on the traditional game with entertaining new formats and a variety of equipment.
All skill levels are welcome and can join in the fun with no strings attached.
Tennis Australia's Chief Tennis Officer Matt Dwyer said "We're delighted to announce Open Court Sessions as a fresh new way to get more adults back into the sport."
"Open Court Sessions is the perfect mix of a casual social hit with friends and the opportunity to enjoy great food and drinks courtside," he said.
"And most importantly, it fits in to today's busy lifestyles.
"Our research shows that people are time poor and they want flexibility and fun with their fitness routines, and Open Court Sessions fits that criteria - just book online and rock up to your local tennis club.
"It's all about being social, both on and off the court, and we all know how important that is for both physical and mental health."
The Launch event at Kiama Tennis Club is one not to be missed!
- Location: Kiama Tennis Club, 50 Noorinan Street, Kiama NSW, 2533
- Date: Saturday 15 th February,
- Time: 12pm-2pm
Off court activities include food and drinks, with open courts for attendees to enjoy and a facilitated Open Court Session to get everyone relaxed and eager to get back on the court. There will be various prizes on offer and live music entertainment.
Open Court Sessions will be run by enthusiastic hosts who will keep things moving and ensure the fun rolls along on and off the court. All equipment is provided and players will be matched up so there's no need to find a doubles partner.
Each session includes a range of activities, with time for socialising off the court just as important as the time spent hitting a ball.
