More chances to pick up a racquet at AO 2025
“Most people in Australia kick off their tennis journey at a local club, whether they are playing for fun and fitness, or dreaming of going pro,” Tennis Australia’s Chief Tennis Officer Tom Larner said.
“Bringing more chances to grab a racquet at AO 2025 is a great way to celebrate the social impact grassroots tennis has within the community. And it gives us even more opportunity to show off all the awesome activities happening at clubs across the country.

“From families trying out Hot Shots Tennis to friends getting their sweat on with Cardio Tennis, or anyone jumping back into the sport with fun options like Padel, Pickleball or Pop Tennis, there will be something for everyone to try.”
Tennis continues to grow in popularity, with more than 1.48 million Australians participating in the sport from July 2022 to June 2023, and 2,300 affiliated tennis clubs and venues nationwide.
