Ladies Winter Tennis Development Programme
Alister and I will be organising matchplay on 7 Sundays from 24 May for ladies to work on their game and fitness over winter.
Improve your matchplay, courtcraft and tactics and meet new people to play with – even if you haven’t played for a while this is an easy way to get back into tennis.
We will try and match you up with ladies of a similar standard, and I will be on hand offering tips and advice.
The format will be both singles (if you wish) and doubles.
You can come to as many or few sessions as you can, but please let Marilyn know during the week before if possible (021-880020).
Points can be earned each week and will culminate in a fun tournament on the last Sunday.
Starting date: Sunday 24 May
Venue: Tennis courts - Onetangi Sports Park
Time: 1-3pm
Duration: 7 weeks
Cost: $10 per week (pay as you go) or $50 in advance
Contact: Marilyn on 021-880020 to advise that you are going to participate
There will be lots of tennis and lots of fun to get you out of the house on cold winter days.
