Summer of Sport 2026: Dates, venues and schedules for free tennis events across Scotland
• 2 minute read
It’s Game On this summer – with free opportunities for young people to try tennis across Scotland.
Tennis Scotland are working in partnership with sportscotland as part of the 2026 Summer of Sport – a £20 million initiative funded by the Scottish Government designed to offer young people the opportunity to get active and maybe try something new.
The 2026 Summer of Sport is a unique opportunity for communities across Scotland to embrace the excitement of sport, inspired by the 2026 FIFA World Cup and the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games, both of which will showcase Scotland on the global stage and inspire young people to take part, get active and begin their own journey in sport and activity.
We’ve got host a host of FREE tennis events planned in newly refurbished public parks across Scotland – see below for a full schedule and click the links to sign up.
