Why Try Walking Tennis?
Walking tennis is ideal for those who are just starting, returning from an injury or just need a bit more time getting to the ball. The game is designed to be accessible to all. It’s still tennis – but with a few tweaks:
- You can let the ball bounce twice for extra time,
- You play on a smaller court and can use modified equipment (i.e. smaller net, softer tennis balls, smaller tennis rackets),
- Running and jumping are not allowed.
Positively Impact Your Mental Health:
Even short bursts of regular exercise have proven benefits to your physical and mental health, making this indoor sport a fantastic way to boost your well-being.
