Free tennis program returns

Locals are getting ready to serve up fun as Brimbank council’s ‘In2Tennis’ initiative returns.

The program will give Brimbank residents a chance to pick up a racquet and enjoy a month of free tennis activities across the municipality.

Brimbank mayor Virginia Tachos said the program is designed to remove barriers and encourage residents to try tennis in a welcoming environment.

“This initiative is all about making it easy for residents of all ages and abilities to give tennis a go,” Cr Tachos said.

Running throughout February, the ‘In2Tennis’ will include no-charge tennis court hire, tennis open days and other tennis programs.

No charge tennis court hire will be available at participating venues including Albion Tennis Club, Delahey Recreation Club, Keilor Park Tennis Club, Keilor Tennis Club, North Sunshine Tennis Club, St Albans East Tennis Club, Sunshine Park Tennis Club and Sydenham Tennis Club.

Other programs will also be delivered throughout the month, including Hotshots sessions for younger players, adult social tennis, ladies social tennis and ladies fast 4 competitions.

“I encourage everyone to visit brimbank.vic.gov.au/in2tennis, see what’s available at participating clubs, and make the most of this fantastic free opportunity throughout February,” Cr Tachos said.

The council-run initiative is delivered in partnership with Brimbank tennis clubs and Tennis Victoria.
