More than 100 people like Lorde went down to the tennis court and talked it up like, yeah, for Love Tennis at Richmond Tennis Club on Sunday.
Love Tennis is a nationwide event served by Tennis NZ for the next Roger Federers and Lulu Suns to pick up a tennis or pickleball racquet for free.
The chance to win a trip to Auckland to watch some of the best women's tennis action at the ASB Classic in January also proved a hit.
Richmond Tennis Club president Annette Bormolini says the day was ace, and for everyone who came through the gates during the four-hour event, the ball is now in their court to add to the club’s 220 members.
