Ace Your Tennis Game with Olaso Tennis Academy
The one°15 tennis ladder system is aimed at encouraging players and coaches to up their game.
Members can look forward to a new and exciting vibe at the tennis courts once the recreational facilities resume and safety measures are relaxed. The Club’s tennis programmes are getting a revamp, thanks to a new partnership with Olaso Tennis Academy, co-founded by former ATP (Association of Tennis Professionals) player Guillermo Olaso. The former director of SITA Tennis Academy recently launched a new tennis training programme at ONE°15 Marina Sentosa Cove.
The programme, Olaso says, is designed to “bring back excitement and following from all tennis members young and old”, and aims to set a new standard of tennis for the Club. His goal is to build the Club’s teams so they can compete at the various tennis tournaments around Singapore, from the junior tennis league (JTTL) to Singapore Inter-club competition and other national tournaments.
The first order of the day for the programme, however, will be to create a ONE°15 Tennis Ladder. Th is ladder league system will rank players like the rungs of a ladder—where they can challenge each other to matches and their ratings will move up or down based on their wins and losses.The system is not just for players and Members, coaches will take part in it as well. With this partnership, ONE°15 Marina Sentosa Cove is looking to enhance its presence in tennis circuits around Singapore.
Did you know?
ONE°15 Marina has two outdoor hard courts, each furnished with acrylic surface sand, that sit on the hillside across the Clubhouse.
The Club has tennis balls and rackets available for rental in case you have forgotten to bring your gear.
The Club hosts a plethora of tennis training programmes and packages, suitable for players of all ages.
The academy also aims to make the tennis courts and its surrounds areas of recreation and social engagement with fringe activities. These include organising Club Open Championship in the open age and junior categories for both men and women with prizes awarded and a mention in a “hall of fame” wall. This will not only encourage more participation from Members, but bring a community spirit to the Club’s sport activities.
