Thinking of tennis coaches, socials & clubs?
Engaging in tennis socials can be a fun and enjoyable way to exercise and spend quality time with friends. Social tennis often involves a relaxed approach to the game's rules, allowing for modifications based on players' levels and abilities. For instance, players may agree to bounce the ball before returning it or opt for softer balls. 'Sides' play, rather than strictly singles or doubles, is common, with the first side to reach a set number of points winning.
Another popular option is cardio tennis, increasingly favored in Australia as a lively and effective fitness activity. These sessions typically feature dynamic drills and exercises designed to elevate heart rates and burn calories, appealing to individuals of all fitness levels as a refreshing alternative to traditional gym routines.

On the other hand, tennis lessons offer structured guidance to improve players' techniques and skills. Lessons may be private, with a dedicated tennis coach working one-on-one with a student, or conducted in groups, with instructors overseeing multiple students simultaneously. Tailored to cater to all skill levels, from beginners to advanced players, tennis lessons are adaptable to individual needs and goals.
