Blog Contest : Two-hour Tennis Lesson, FREE, for 10 lucky kids!

22 June 200918 Comments

[Anya, Vai and their tennis friends. There were actually MORE kids, but some couldn’t make it that day]

Just recently, both Anya and Vai went for their very first Summer Holiday Tennis Camp, organised by VVIP International.

Over the five sessions they learned a lot about the basics of tennis as a sport and they had fun!

Now.

I’d like to share what they experienced with you!

And that is, through a blog contest where you can stand a chance to WIN FREE two-hour tennis lesson for your child, worth $50!! [Thanks to VVIP International!]

The main coach is Wynne Prakusya, who used to play tennis professionally, representing Indonesia.

She’s great with children and I’m sure your kids will love her coaching techniques too!

So, if you have a kid (or know of a kid) who is between the age of 3 and 10 whom you’d like to introduce tennis to (and how fun it can be!), please do read on!

Gee. THIS. IS. SO. EXCITING!  (am always super happy whenever I can share great stuff with blog readers!)

Really. This is such an excellent way of :

– introducing your kid to tennis
– seeing if your kid will indeed like the sport (and for you to decide whether you’d let your kid continue on later)
– spending time together on a weekend as a family on the court – in a healthy way!
– simply letting your kid have FUN!

[We’ll sure be there that Saturday afternoon!]

Now, please please go ahead, check your calendar, block that time slot (4-6pm on Saturday, 4 July) and enter the contest!!

Hurry!!
