Second Serve Podcast is the only tennis podcast created exclusively for adult recreational players by everyday tennis players. We are passionate about the game and our episodes are geared towards adults playing a sport in the later years of life (hence, the name “Second Serve”). The goal of the podcast is to promote and grow the game of tennis for adult players. This podcast discusses everything related to adult recreational tennis. Topics include the following: advice for beginners; what adult recreational players wear; funny and crazy situations that happen on the court; the rules of adult tennis; and how it feels being an adult and getting your feelings hurt when you are not played in an important match. We know how it feels! If you would like to see pictures of our guests or listen to any of our previous episodes, please visit our website https://secondservepodcast.com. You can search for any topic that you're interested in and find an episode about it. We also have information about ratings, rules, tennis gear and more on our "Resources" page. Thanks so much for listening!

Love this podcast
I love this podcast!
Fun show for tennis enthusiasts!
I enjoy this show which focuses on recreational players and all things tennis around us! Some of my favorite episodes are the Pet Peeves. The stories and situations are so relatable! You can tell that the hosts would be fun teammates and opponents. They know their stuff while not taking themselves too seriously. Also, to go from 2.5 to 4.0 players at the adult level is very impressive! I will definitely recommend this podcast to my tennis friends!
So good!
For those of us playing adult rec or league tennis this podcast covers all angles! Laughs, information, reality, frustration….always look forward to new episodes!🎾
