TENNIS fans are being invited to put on their whites and enjoy a few games for free this summer.

As part of a recruitment campaign, the Lawn Tennis Association is encouraging people to play tennis free at clubs in North Yorkshire.

Players of all ages and abilities will be able to spend a day between now and September at a large number of clubs, leisure centres and local authority venues.

The Play Tennis initiative hopes to attract thousands of newcomers to the sport, following on from its enormous success over the previous four years.
