Junior News
Two of our junior boys Austin Guo and Tristan Edelbroeck have had an exciting fortnight being ball boys at the ASB Tennis.
Here’s what they thought about the experience:
Austin - Ball-boying for the ASB Classic has been a really rewarding experience for me. I got to meet a lot of top players and watch their matches live on court which has inspired me to improve on my own tennis.
Tristan - The ASB classic experience has been a great opportunity to watch what the professionals do and see their techniques. The venue is a great place to meet new people and collect some autographs, and I would love to do it again next year.
And look at some of the stars they met! Maybe your child might be keen next year….
