Social tennis, all year round

We run social tennis events through the year — BBQs, community afternoons and high teas. Here’s the next one, and what we’ve run before.

Sofreh & Serve — mixed doubles and a Persian feast, Sunday 11 October at East Killara
Sunday 11 October 2026 · 2–4pm · East Killara

Sofreh & Serve

Two hours of mixed doubles, then we eat.

Tell us who you want to play with and we’ll put you on court together. Our coaches feed the balls, every game is first to eleven, and we keep rolling through different formats for the full two hours.

Then the sofreh comes out. A sofreh is the cloth a Persian meal is laid out on, and everyone sits around it and shares. We’re cooking one traditional Persian dish from scratch, and we’re not telling anyone what it is until the day.

  • $65 per person, food and soft drinks included
  • All levels welcome, as long as you bring a partner
  • No partner? Say so when you book and we’ll do our best to pair you up
  • No serve needed. Our coaches feed every ball
  • Four coaches on court for the whole session
  • Bring your own drink as well if you like
  • Allan Small Oval, Saiala Rd, East Killara NSW 2071

Sold out

Every spot for 11 October has gone. Thank you, that was quick.

We are keeping a waiting list and it is worth being on it. Plans change, and we usually get a cancellation or two in the last couple of weeks, so spots do come back. Message Hadi on 0469 942 845 and he will let you know as soon as one does.

Already booked? Everything you need for the day is below, and you can still pass your spot to someone else if you cannot make it. Just tell us who.
