Tennis is the number one delivered sport in Australian schools, with more than 3600 schools providing lessons as part of their curriculum.

Nightcliff Primary School (NT): All 650 students at this Northern Territory school participate in tennis, with opportunities to play in class, as well as recess/lunchtime programs and through a range of different events throughout the school year.

Torrens Valley Christian School (SA): This is the South Australian school’s 10th year of delivering a popular Tennis Hot Shots program. Many students are now actively involved in local tennis clubs, as well as lunchtime competitions.
