About Tambour Tour
The Tambour Tour is an exciting real tennis tournament designed to provide opportunities for players aspiring to break into the top level and enhance their game. The tournament takes place over a season, featuring multiple rounds held at different clubs across the UK. Players with handicaps ranging from 0 to 15 can participate, competing for points in each round based on their performance.
The Tambour Tour has been created with a clear and noble vision - to provide a dynamic platform for players to challenge themselves, improve their skills, and strive for greatness. The driving force behind its creation was the realization that many current competitions tend to cater predominantly to the existing top players, leaving a significant gap in the standard of play for others. The tour aims to bridge this gap and create a more inclusive and competitive environment, where players of all levels have the opportunity to showcase their talents and compete throughout the year.
By offering a series of tournaments held at various clubs across the UK, the Tambour Tour opens doors for aspiring players to push themselves, elevate their game, and break into the below zero handicap bracket, ultimately aiming to secure a spot among the top 10 players in the world. This ambitious mission reflects the tour's commitment to nurturing talent and supporting players on their journey to success.
With its innovative points system, the tour encourages consistent participation and rewards outstanding performances, making it an exciting and engaging experience for players and spectators. By providing opportunities for players to compete all year round, the Tambour Tour offers a pathway to continuous growth and improvement in the sport of real tennis.
Overall, the Tambour Tour is a testament to the dedication of its creators in ensuring that real tennis becomes more inclusive, competitive, and vibrant.
