This is a true bucket list experience playing tennis on Melbourne's famous blue courts. Plus experience Melbourne’s world famous sporting precinct first hand and understand why sport forms the fabric of this vibrant city’s culture. We will meet at Fed Square, then head to Birrarung Marr and walk along the river to Rod Laver Arena for tennis history, Melbourne & Olympic Park, AAMI Park for soccer and rugby, and finally at the MCG for a guided tour. An avid tennis player and watcher my whole life, Melbourne and tennis form some of my life's best memories - sneaking on to centre court at Kooyong to watch Australia win the Davis Cup, working the very first AO at Melbourne Park, chaffeur to the players and VIPs over the last couple of years, as well as playing social comps with mates for 30 years. I have many fond memories that I love to share with global visitors and give you a glimpse into the connection that millions of Melburnians and I have with this event and sporting precinct.
