BUILDING VALUES TOURNAMENT

BUILDING VALUES TOURNAMENT

Welcome to the World of Tennis !

This competition is designed for the young players from our tennis school who are just starting to explore the wonderful world of tennis. Our goal is to create a fun, friendly, and supportive environment where everyone can play on equal terms and enjoy the game, regardless of skill level.

Beyond learning tennis, this competition is about embracing important values that will help you both on and off the court:

Camaraderie – Working together and supporting your fellow players.
Effort – Giving your best in every game and practice.
Respect – For your opponents, coaches, and the rules of the game.
Perseverance – Never giving up, even when things get tough.
Enthusiasm – Bringing energy and joy to every match.
Sportsmanship – Winning or losing with grace.
Education – Learning from every experience, improving your skills, and growing as a player.

We believe that through this competition, you’ll not only improve your tennis skills but also build lasting friendships and learn values that will serve you throughout life. Let’s have fun, learn together, and make every match count! 

Registration is done directly via Matchi

Please come on time so we can divide the children and start playing right away. The parents are allowed to be on the court to see the children play and take some photos. The children should bring their racquet, sport clothing, and some water. We will help them with the rules, counting, etc. The tournament will take about an hour. 

Please note! By signing up for this event you agree that we may take photos and videos of the children participating in the matches, practicing, and interacting with their peers. These images may be used on our school’s website, social media, and other promotional materials to highlight the fun, learning, and progress the children are making.

Please note that we only have 2 pitches available for the camps, and that construction activities are taking place on 2 sides of the pitches. The construction sites are fenced, so they therefore pose no danger to children. We will set up a tent next to the pitches where children and adults can stay in case of rain
For children, we have a maximum of 24 places per week, for adults we have 16. Priority is given to members
All registrants will be notified of a place about 4 weeks before the start of the camp

For children, there will be 2 hours of tennis every day plus activities such as mini golf, athletics, football, swimming, etc.
For children, the camp is at 09:00-15:00 every day (not 15-17 as we do not have a clubhouse available)

Club championship 2023 – June 20 to June 24

Club championship 2023 – June 20 to June 24

We have to move the club championship to June since we’ll start building the new tennis arena in August. The tournament is played over 5 days, so that players participating in multiple classes don’t have to play many matches per day. The café will be open every afternoon that week. In addition to prizes, we’ll have giftcards and Head products. All u10 and u12 participants will get prizes

PICKLEBALL AT OTK

PICKLEBALL AT OTK

Come and try on Saturday, 11.6.2022, at 18:00, in Oslo Tennisklubb.
Free play, a clinic with certified coaches, and a great time!

Pickleball is the fastest-growing sport in America

Pickleball is a paddle sport with combined elements of tennis, badminton and ping pong, and played on a doubles badminton court. The net is similar to a tennis net, but is two inches lower. The game is played with a hard paddle that is similar to table tennis and usually made up of graphite or composite. The ball is comparable to a Wiffle ball.

The game can be played in either singles’ or doubles’ matches.

Pickleball grew in 2020 to 4.2 million players in the US, an incredible growth rate of 21.3% from 2019 per the Sports & Fitness Industry Association’s (SFIA) 2020 Pickleball Participant Report, released in Feb. 2021.

Pickleball is for everyone, and it’s a great family sport, too. “Anyone can play, from eight-year olds up to 100-year olds,” “It’s great for hand-eye coordination for younger kids.”

Health Benefits

Since pickleball moves at a slower pace than tennis, it’s easier on the joints while also improving balance, coordination and agility. This makes it a wonderful choice for those who have had injuries in the past, or former tennis players looking for a gentler alternative.

For new players, the basics of the sport are easy to learn. Typically, one session of three or four games is all that it takes.

Playing pickleball can boost your mood and overall mental health, you burn calories, and fewer injuries occur due to the low impact nature of the game. Pickleball specifically works on your balance and agility while it also offers the same benefits of other regular exercise. These include reducing your risk of heart attack and chronic disease, toning your muscles and increasing your energy.

Most of all, pickleball is a social sport where you will create friendship anywhere you play.

Join us! We play every Friday at 7 pm
