Who can play?

Walking Tennis is for anyone that wants to play tennis, but at their own pace. It’s ideal for those who:

• Are just starting out* and want to build up their confidence.
• Are returning from an injury.
• Just need a bit more time getting to the ball.

How do I play?

Walking Tennis has been designed to be accessible for all. It’s still tennis – but with a few tweaks:

• You can let the ball bounce twice for extra time.
• You can play on a smaller court and use modified equipment.
• Players can’t run or jump.
