A record 64 participants will be taking part in the first Tennis 10s Festival to be hosted by the Malta Tennis Federation at the Marsa Sports Club, today.

The activity will bring together players from 10 different organi-sations for a full day of tennis.

The format will follow the internationally-acclaimed Green and Orange Festival, allowing players of different abilities to use appropriate equipment and play on smaller courts.

The coordinator of the Tennis 10s programme, Claire Arrigo, said she was satisfied with the response from affiliated clubs and tennis schools.

“The aim of our programme is to get more children attracted to the game. This kind of activity is an ideal way for newcomers to get involved,” she said.

The Malta Tennis 10s will be supported by corporate partner Gasan Mamo and sponsors Eurosport. Melita will transmit the 10s Festival on Malta Stars.
