Game, Set, Match! Ingham Tennis Association To Serve Up Fun In 2025

February 18, 2025

The Ingham Tennis Association is welcoming young players back to the courts for Term 1 of junior tennis in 2025, offering both group coaching and social play opportunities. With programs catering to children aged 3 to 17, the club is committed to providing a fun, active, and inclusive environment for kids to get involved in sport.

A new addition for 2025 is Junior Social Tennis, designed to introduce more children to the game in a relaxed, friendly setting. The program officially starts on Tuesday the 4th of February at 3:30pm and aims to encourage participation and skill development.

Coaching sessions have already commenced on Thursdays and Saturdays at the Ingham Tennis Courts and to ensure activities can continue in all conditions, the club has plans in place for wet weather. Indoor games such as pickleball and ping pong will be introduced in the hall, allowing kids to stay active even when the courts are unavailable.

Parents looking to enrol their children can take advantage of the Queensland Government’s $200 Fair Play Vouchers, which are accepted at the club to help cover costs.

For more information or to sign up:
   • Junior Social Tennis – Call Richard on 0428 152 125
   • Coaching Groups – Call Tom on 0413 199 702

Tennis is a fantastic sport for children of all ages, and the Ingham Tennis Association makes it easy and fun to get involved!

Not only does tennis help improve hand-eye coordination, speed, and agility, but it also builds strength and keeps kids active and healthy. Plus, it’s a great way to learn important life skills like resilience, problem-solving, and sportsmanship - whether they’re playing singles or teaming up for doubles. Best of all, it’s a social sport where kids can make new friends while having a blast on the court.

Whether they’re just starting out or looking to sharpen their skills, Ingham Tennis Association is the perfect place to play, learn, and grow!
