Clark Francis Tennis filled up all the courts at the Aviation Club on Friday 2nd October for it's Adult Open Day. Each court had a different theme and was manned by all the CFT Coaches. Drills varying from "Doubles Drills" to "Cardio Tennis" put the 70 adults through their skills and endurance. Starting at 4.30pm as people arrived they were assessed and put into similar level groups to spend the afternoon rotating around the 9 courts. Clark Francis himself gathered them all together at the start and made a speech to address the coming year and how he and the team are going to improve the adult tennis programs available. After a humid couple of hours the group were demonstrated the fun game they were going to finish with, Adult Olympics. This is a doubles related point play drill where you practice all the shots in the game as well as moving around at a fast pace. So after the adults were introduced to and played Olympics they gathered round again for photos and prize giving. 2 players were given vouchers for free brunch at The Cellar for working exceptionally hard on the Cardio court and everyone received a welcome pack and one free pass to classes at the Aviation Club.

Look out for Cardio Tennis and Adult Olympics starting SOON!!!
