TENNIS ACADEMIES
There are currently 2 private tennis academies affiliated and registered with the Tennis Association of Maldives. People looking to get tennis lessons can choose to get the services of either of these academies.
Through aid of these academies we hope to have an even greater reach in increasing the number of tennis players in the country to allow for better competitions and leagues to be formed and to ensure the steady growth of the sport as well.
