It’s a grand slam

TENNIS clubs throughout the area have paired up with the City of Casey to make a racquet as they prepare to present a ‘nothing less than ace’ Casey Tennis Week.
With activities set to kick off on Sunday 1 February, around 27 events have been planned for various locations including local tennis clubs. There will be something for everyone with choices ranging from club open days, social games, Hot Shots coaching, come and try sessions, a family fun day and a cardio tennis session.
Council will also host its own event, a come and try totem tennis activity on Wednesday 4 February from 12.30pm until 3pm at the Casey Civic Centre. The activities will run through until February 8.
City of Casey Mayor invited everyone to come down and have a hit at any of the events on offer.
“Now in its seventh year, Casey Tennis Week gives those that have never tried the sport the chance to test it out, an opportunity for those who want to get back into it to do so and gives tennis enthusiasts more reason to get out and enjoy the sport they love,” Cr Morland said.
He said with the Australian Open now upon us, people should be eager to come down and have a swing.
“Council is committed to increasing physical activity, sport participation and creating a healthy community through initiatives like Casey Tennis Week,” he said.
“This event also showcases many of Casey’s tennis clubs, their great facilities and the wonderful volunteers who run them, as well as giving them the opportunity to seek more members.”
Casey Tennis Week is proudly supported by the City of Casey and Tennis Victoria.
