Are you a tennis playing expat currently residing in Amsterdam? And are you looking for a trusted network platform where you can: meet fellow tennis-expats, expand your network, and get informed about how tennis is organized in The Netherlands? If your are, then you are at the right place!
Slim Tennis Background
Our goal at Slim Tennis (‘Slim’ means ‘Smart’ in Dutch) is to make mental tennis-training easy and concrete. We do this through workshops, coaching sessions, courses, and reading material. Although we also provide workshops for tennis coaches, tennis lessons are not a core product at Slim Tennis. And as you have probably noticed, apart from this page, the whole website is in Dutch.
So, why Expat Tennis Amsterdam? We encountered many expats here in Amsterdam who either wanted to play tennis with someone every now and then, or who wanted to take tennis lessons under flexible terms. With almost no information in English available on tennis in Amsterdam it has been difficult for expats and non-Dutch speakers to locate, reserve and get directions to tennis courses and tennis clubs. We are doing something about this by setting up this Expat Tennis Amsterdam (ETA) community.
Expat Tennis Amsterdam Community Aim
With Expat Tennis Amsterdam, we have the following simple aims. We start small with number 1, and as the community grows we will together reach aims 2 – 5.
- 1. Provide practical information regarding tennis in Amsterdam, as well as tennis lessons with flexible arrangements.
- 2. Organize tennis events for tennis-expats to meet and play each other.
- 3. Organize social events so we can all also get to know each other in surroundings other than tennis clubs.
- 4. Go on tennis trips with members of the community, from organized Grand Slam visits to training trips.
- 5. Engage in a tennis-related charity, and with that use tennis as a way to also give back.
