Sunday 11 September saw Broadview Tennis Club play host to Tennis SA’s 2016 ANZ Tennis Hot Shots New York Slam.
The tournament attracted 34 children playing over Red, Orange and Green Ball divisions. The red, white and blue flags were out on a beautiful sunny day, with great fun had by all!
With its modified environments, ANZ Tennis Hot Shots lets kids find success at tennis from a young age. The size of the court and racquet along with the compression of the ball (which alters bounce and speed in flight) are all designed to ensure players at each stage of development achieve success.
