The 2013 Open Day was a great success
22 non members attended the Healesville Tennis Club Open Day on 10th November including young children who had never played tennis before and previous members renewing their acquaintance with tennis.
It was great to see current members also enjoying the opportunity to have a social game of tennis in great weather.
Thank you to Wayne and Maurice Broom for their dedication to teaching novices the basics of the game and engaging them and encouraging them to enjoy tennis as a game.
