Year 8 unearth Real Tennis @ Holyport

Year 8 headed to Holyport Real Tennis Club eager to discover this original form of the game.

This fascinating mix of sport, culture, British History and architecture mixes squash, tennis and fives all into one.

With odd shaped rackets and slanted roofs, the boys took to the court with great enthusiasm.  The Club Professional, John Evans, gave a perfect lesson before the boys were let loose on the court on their own.

A fascinating morning was had by all – so much to learn, on so many levels!
