Launched last month, Epworth and Haxey tennis clubs are inviting young and old alike to have a go at the sport with the aim of improving health and wellness.
The new sessions have come about after the organisations secured funding for tennis coaching targeted at families.
Epworth’s club secreyary Jacqui Welch said: “The aim is to involve two, or three, generations of the same family in some fun tennis coaching and to get more people interested in playing the game.
“It does not have to involve lots of running about - ball feeders are welcome.
