Tennis & Padel information

The park


M.S.T.V Stennis shares 10 gravel-court courts with the local tennis association T.C. Hazendans, which are located at tennis park ‘T.C. Hazendans'. Moreover, the park is composed of 4 padel courts, 1 practice wall, a lovely canteen and large changing rooms. The tennis courts are available from around march till novembre.


Fell


Padel is a combination of tennis, squash and beachball, origination from Mexico. You play 2 against 2 at a court surrounded by glass walls and a fence. The game goes as follows; the ball may touch the ground only once, before it has to be returned to the other site, over the net. In between letting the ball bounce on the ground and returning it to your opponent, the ball may also hit the wall. Furthermore the usual 'tennis rules' apply. In padel, rackets made of fibreglass or carbon are used.


Trainings


Throughout the year we offer 5 training periods of 5/6 weeks each. The training will take place on Mondays, tuesday and Thursdays at tennis park 'T.C. Hazendans' and will be given by our certified trainer. The training starts from 17:00 onwards. Occasionally we also offer padel training.


Toss


Almost every Wednesday night we have a toss-evening for all our members from 19:00 onwards. On these nights we mostly play doubles, which means that we pair you up in random couples. Usually, we swap after 30 minutes, this will give you the opportunity to play with and against different members. On these Wednesdays, you can also play padel, or try it if you haven't already.


Toss-BorrelsIn addition to the regular Toss that takes place on every Wednesday, a toss-borrel is also organised once every few weeks. On this evening, tennis is combined with a special twist! Besides having a nice drink, beer pong tables are set up and snacks fly around. These evenings are guaranteed to be even more sociable than during normal toss evenings!
