The Rules

Walking Tennis is played  outdoors on a traditional tennis court with softer bounce balls. The rules are not too far removed from the traditional game but have been adapted them to make the game more accessible to those less mobile for whatever reason.  (including recovery from operation etc)
No running or jumping is permitted.! Running or jumping is deemed to be when both feet leave the ground at the sametime. In Walking Tennis you can serve underarm or overarm. The main thing to remember is that the second bounce can land within the tramline (doubles court).   You can volley and lob.
In Walking Tennis you have an OPTION of a second bounce. However if the second bounce lands outside of the court (singles lines for singles and doubles line for doubles), the ball is deemed to be out. 

Get to understand how to play and see some videos by going to Walking Tennis Associations website.

The main thing is to enjoy it!
