HAVE a hit and meet your neighbours at Buninyong & District Tennis Association\u2019s weekly social evenings.<\/p>\n

Each Thursday from 7pm to 9pm, the association is inviting local players, above the age of 16, to enjoy a few games of pressure-free tennis with those of a similar level.<\/p>\n

The social comp is an initiative of association members, Flynn and Erin Jamieson.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have fantastic courts in Buninyong, and they\u2019re there to be used, so we want to encourage all the communities in our association to come out and just have a social night of tennis,\u201d Mrs Jamieson said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s really good for us all to just get out, have fun, and build a community atmosphere. In COVID times, we\u2019ve missed that interaction, so this enables us to get out in a no-pressure environment, purely to have a hit and meet people.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a good opportunity to get to know your neighbours, and people in your community, so your feel more a part of the area.\u201d<\/p>\n

Participants will be matched with people of the same level and have the option to play singles, doubles, or both.<\/p>\n

Although the Thursday events are formally for those over 16, the whole family is welcome, and there will be space for children to run around or kick a ball.<\/p>\n

Entry is $5 per person. Contact buninyongsocialtennis@gmail.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bring your own drink and a snack as none will be provided due to COVID-19 plans. The competition will not run if the weather is wet.<\/p>\n

The association\u2019s area stretches beyond Ballarat and Buninyong to Ballan, Dunnstown, Elaine, Gordon, Grenville, Haddon, Mount Helen, Napoleons, Navigators, Meredith, Rokewood, Ross Creek, Smythesdale and Warrenheip.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
