The AO Blitz will appear at the Gawler Village Fair on Saturday 2 November as the largest participation drive in Australian tennis history continues in South Australia.

The AO Blitz is a national competition that allows people who play tennis – and those who have never picked up a racquet – the chance to win major prizes and have an Australian Open 2014 player represent their local town.

The AO Blitz is comprised of two parts – free community tennis days and an online interactive competition at www.aoblitz.com.au.

In the lead-up to Australian Open 2014 the AO Blitz will be visiting communities in every state and territory of the country, encouraging Australians of all ages and tennis abilities to pick up a racquet and have a hit.

On Saturday the AO Blitz will visit Gawler Village Fair, Pioneer Park, Murray Street, Gawler from 9.00am –  2.30pm

Locals will have the chance to participate in a range of free tennis activities including:

·        MLC Tennis Hot Shots – modified tennis designed especially for children

·        Cardio Tennis – new tennis fitness workout

·        Speed Serve

·        Plus fun giveaways to take home

**At the Gawler AO Blitz stop we will be fundraising for our charity partners the National Breast Cancer Foundation and Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia.
