Tennisbane

Tennis on the Gauteng highveld demands equipment and technique that handle both the altitude and the intensity of the sun. Hard courts here play faster than in coastal regions, and the dry air affects ball flight and string tension in ways players quickly learn to adjust for. Tennisbane manages the logistics that make regular play possible — court maintenance against dust storms, scheduling around the unpredictable October-November heat, and managing facility wear during the long summer season. Members understand the practical realities: what strings hold up better in these conditions, how to time practice around peak sun, and why consistent court access matters more than occasional access to premium facilities. The club's approach reflects decades of operating in this climate, not generic tennis administration.
