Open Court

Open Court – Social Tennis

What is open court?

Open Court is a free, fun and social way to get into tennis — no pressure, no skill needed. It’s all about having a hit, meeting new people, and enjoying good vibes.

Who is it for?

Open Court is primarily designed for 15–35 year olds in mind, but open to anyone who’s new to the game or hasn’t played in a while. Come solo, bring your mates or whānau — everyone’s welcome, even if you’ve never picked up a racquet.

What to expect

You’ll be greeted by a friendly host, meet some new faces, and jump into relaxed tennis games with different partners. There’ll be music, laughs, and zero pressure. After the session? Hang out, have a bit to eat, and plan your return.

Each session runs for about 60 minutes:

10-minute warm-up
50 minutes of fun games and tennis activities
Time to chill, chat, and snack

Where to play

Open Court is popping up at clubs across Aotearoa. Check with your local club to see when they’re hosting.
