Why Tennis?
 

- Tennis is trending now! Cities from Australia to America are awash in short pleated skirts, tennis dresses, and polo collars that can make everyone look like they  are a tennis player. Sales of women’s tennis apparel spiked 22% in the U.S. between the beginning of the year and August 2024, while men’s tennis apparel saw a 19% increase.

- Tennis fits everyone. It does not require big muscles or large physique. Champion Jasmine Paolini is only 5'4". The legendary Roger Federer does not have big muscular arms.

- Tennis is rewarding. For players drawn to technical mastery, it delivers a deep sense of accomplishment earned only through precision, patience, and hard work.

- Great workout. Tennis offers the fun and anaerobic activity. In addition to short sprints, there are constant changes of direction. It is a good sport for agility.

- Lessons for life. Younger tennis players develop many positive traits such as work ethic, responsibility, and resilience. One thing that stands out is the ability to cope pressure. The physiological traits are carried on to their adult life in relationships, work, and social behavior.

- Everywhere. You don’t need to round up a team to play like in the case of basketball and volleyball. No matter where you are, chances are there is a tennis court nearby. 
 
- Social interaction. Tennis is a very social sport. It allows you to have fun with your friends not only during points but also between, before, and after the match.

- Endless fun. Tennis tournaments happen year round and you can enjoy watching exciting games all year long. Being an individual sport, tennis draws you to the personalities of the players. Every point is so important, which makes watching tennis engaging.
