Sports sessions
We run a range of sports sessions for adults and children throughout the year. Below is a list of upcoming sessions.
Walking/Wheelchair Tennis
If you like tennis but are looking for a gentler pace of play, then Walking Tennis is for you. It's a fantastic game open to everyone, where you can keep your mind and body active whilst also enjoying the social side of being part of a tennis community. The rules are the same as tennis but you cant run or jump and the ball can bounce twice. This is the same as Wheelchair Tennis which means wheelchair users can also play. Sports wheelchairs are available for players to use on request.
Dates: Weekly sessions take place on a Thursday
Times: 12:00pm-1:00pm
Venue: The Holbrook Club Sports Hall, Horsham, RH12 5PJ
Cost: £10 per session
For more information and to book sessions please call Mike Costa (Head Tennis Coach) on 07944 775262
