Tennis
Epsom Girls Grammar School offers tennis at both a social and competitive level with specialist coaching throughout the season. Students who are new to the sport are encouraged to complete a 1-term coaching programme prior to entering into the inter-School competition. Players will be graded into teams, playing regular fixtures (both singles and doubles) against other Auckland school teams. Depending on performance, teams will also have the opportunity to enter into regional and national competitions.
