Why We Love It!
Tennis is a safe sport, provides a great workout, offers a great way to relieve stress and it’s affordable. Not only that, but tennis is also played year-round, and you can stumble upon tennis courts anywhere you go.
Great tennis players are in good shape, but they are also mentally strong – it’s a great activity to help young athletes build mental and physical strength.
Established
Tennis as we know it was established in England in the 1870s. It is derived from a 12th century French handball game called “Paume.”
