Last week’s free session had to be cancelled due to rain, but the courts have dried out and the new date is today, Tuesday 24 June. The coaching will take place at Ingham Tennis Courts, next to the Showgrounds.
The junior players have already been getting in some great practice. Regular squad group members Rory, Cameron, Benjamin and Maya have been enjoying lessons, learning new skills, and improving their game with the help of coach Tom Casey and the dedicated club volunteers.
Today’s free session is a great opportunity for even more kids to get involved. The session runs from 3:30pm to 4:30pm for ages 5 to 9, and from 4:30pm to 5:30pm for ages 10 to 17. There will be fun games, skills coaching and plenty of encouragement for players of all levels.
Tennis is an ideal sport for children of all ages. It helps develop hand-eye coordination, agility and fitness, while also encouraging teamwork, sportsmanship and focus. The sport offers physical and mental health benefits and provides a fun, social environment for young players to stay active and make new friends.
All participants will also enjoy a free Zooper Dooper after the session, thanks to sponsor Powerlink Queensland.
To register interest for this afternoon, for future sessions, or more details, contact Coach Tom Casey on 0413 199 702.
