Walking Tennis comes to Wem

Walking Tennis sessions will be running at Wem Tennis Club on Wednesdays 10-11am.  

Walking Tennis is a great new adaptation of the sport which makes it very accessible to anyone with mobility or co-ordination needs.  

Played at a more gentle pace and with a slower ball, Walking Tennis is ideally suited to those who just need a little more time getting to the ball, as well as those who are perhaps living with an illness or recovering from an injury.

Walking tennis follows the same scoring system and rules as the regular game with two exceptions - no running or jumping, and the ball can bounce twice. Other than that it's the same exciting game of tactics, positioning and ball play.
