Love Tennis info for clubs
why everyone needs to make this a priority event!
Love Tennis 2022 was one of NZ's most successful events yet, with more than 155+ clubs, 19,000 participants and just over 3,000 new member sign ups taking place.
The value of Love Tennis cannot be understated. The event has driven us as a sport to innovate and keep challenging norms, we have a desire to be New Zealand’s favourite sport for participation and Love Tennis is a cornerstone of our strategy. It is quite unlike any other event in the country and we can’t wait to go bigger and better in 2023!
As always, the Love Tennis team are here to help, you can get in touch by emailing: lovetennis@tennis.kiwi
