Ok you may enjoy playing tennis, but here are some benefits that you get and didn’t realise.

You stay sharper: The demands that tennis puts on your body and brain means that new connections are created in the brain.

You could live longer: If you play tennis for a total of 3 hours a week, you could cut your chance of a premature death by half!

You’ll lose weight: Ok and obvious one, but one hour of competitive tennis could mean you burn 750 calories

Most of all you will feel better, as it was found that tennis players measured lower for anxiety, tension and depression and had higher self esteem and were more optimistic than other athletes.

So what’s stopping you, get out on that tennis court.
