On 10th February 2015, Al Nahdha Group sponsored and launches its first Tennis Tournament at Sohar, Oman. Many amateurs showed up to join and compete in a multi-level tournament. The winner was to take home treats and lots of prizes.
Tennis has its origins in a 13th-century French handball game called jeu de paume, or “game of the palm,” from which developed an indoor racket-and-ball game called real, or “royal,” tennis. Real tennis grew into lawn tennis, which was played outside on grass and enjoyed a surge of popularity in the late 19th century.
