BVI Tennis
Our Blind and Visually Impaired Tennis sessions are open to anyone with sight loss, regardless of experience. Whether you're new to the sport or have played before, these sessions offer a welcoming and inclusive environment for everyone to enjoy tennis.
Session Details:
- When: Every other Saturday, 2pm to 3pm
- Where: Hillside Lawn Tennis Club in Ainsdale Village Park
- Cost: £6.00 per session (First session FREE!)
- Equipment: All equipment, including rackets and audible tennis balls, is provided.
What to Expect: Our sessions are tailored to create an accessible and enjoyable tennis experience. The games are played on smaller courts with lower nets. Some courts are equipped with tactile lines and markers, allowing players to feel their way around the court. We use specially designed audible tennis balls, which emit sound when bouncing or being hit, helping players track the ball.
Why Try Visually Impaired Tennis? This rapidly growing sport is a fantastic way to stay fit and active while socializing in a welcoming environment. You’ll have the opportunity to meet others, learn new skills, and experience the joy of tennis in a fun, inclusive setting.
After each session, we encourage participants to unwind with tea and coffee, fostering a great social atmosphere.
