Tennis is Tremendous!

PLAYING TENNIS is an excellent leisure activity! And, it is also a superb choice when thinking of a way to couple recreation with a moderate amount of exercise in a comparably short period of time.

Tennis is considered to be a lifetime sport. This simply means that tennis may be enjoyed by most people from childhood all the way into senior adult years. In addition, several other benefits are noticeable. Consider the following extra pluses. (1) Once a player has the necessary equipment (a racquet and a couple of balls), tennis can usually be played for no additional cost. Nearly every community has tennis courts which can be used free of charge. (2) While tennis may be played separately by men or women, both guys and gals can play tennis together. (3) Unlike some other sports, tennis does not require a team or a large group of players. An individual can engage in this activity with one other person (singles), or two players can compete against two other players (doubles). (4) In recreational tennis, an inexperienced player can participate against a more advanced player, and both enjoy the activity. Skill level is not so extremely important. (5) Age category is not an essential ingredient in tennis-for-fun either! Teenagers can compete against adults; parents can play with their kids. (6) The rules - and how to keep score - are easy to learn!

People have been playing tennis for a long time; the game was invented over one hundred years ago. However, interest and participation have never been higher. And, it's never too late to learn to play - or to dust-off the old racquet and to get back on the court! As one of many possible choices for free-time fun, tennis is tremendous!
