Sunday 12 February saw Tea Tree Gully Tennis Club play host to the 2017 ANZ Tennis Hot Shots Melbourne Slam.
The tournament attracted 14 children playing over Orange and Green Ball divisions. The Aussie 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.
