The Message…
"Opportunity exists in the seconds of time"

Beach Tennis brings something special to the beach.  A spirited game, paired with great competitive nature and a game for all.  What could be better?  The sport encourages all ages, and provides many children from a very young age the opportunity to play in a more freestyle and less structured way.  After all we are all Kids at Heart!

Tips!
Beach Tennis has the capacity to galvanize a community and bring together participants of many other sports, such as squash, tennis, badminton, volleyball and surf lifesaving.  You don't need to be an instant legend.  Develop your style of play and see how improvements in fitness, leg speed, agility and game sense can demonstrate an edge.  Or just be part of it, however you choose.

Kids Birthday Parties
Would you like to do something different for your child's next birthday party.   Why not try some fun on the beach, with beach tennis.  Bring your fairy bread and chocolate crackles to the beach, and give them a day they will remember, with friends and family.

If your child is 8 years and up call Paul today M: 0418 522008

Twilight Competition
Beach Tennis Australia will be conducting regular competition and twilight social beach tennis every Tuesday and Wednesday evening.  No need to book just rock up at 6pm and be graded on the night.  Cost for casual play is $15 per session (includes racquet hire) or Season Beach Pass Holders included.

Beach Tennis Flying high in Europe

 

Beach Tennis has now gone to greater heights and has representation in over 43 countries.

There is great excitement amongst the fraternity , that the sport will one day become an Olympic spectacle. 

The sport has now united many around the world and enabled many to meet and become passionate about what beach tennis has to offer.

Many organisations are embracing the game , and Europe is very leading the way, being very proactive in the sport. Circuits are very well organised and supported, and beach tennis is set to go to a whole new level. They see by being involved in beach tennis, it is a further pathway for players to access racquet sports. By keeping an open mind and proactive approach, they see it developing more powerful and athletic tennis players and sportsmen and women alike.

The future success of beach tennis as a pro and recreational sport, rests in the unification of countries to adopt international rules and standards.Whilst beach tennis is played primarily by 'traditional' tennis players looking for a fun and challenging alternative. However, due to the game's simplicity and short learning curve, beach tennis can be played recreationally by anyone

Come on world, , Bring it On!!!
