In our 2022 Advent calendar we had hidden a 4-day tennis camp at the PMTR Tennis Academy in Mülheim an der Ruhr behind door number 20. Jens was chosen as the lucky winner and traveled to the tennis academy in the Ruhr area in October as an autumn camp travel scout . Perfect for the start of the indoor season. Jens tells us exactly what everyday camp life at PMTR looked like in his detailed camp report. Like every report from our travel scouts, Jens' report is more than happy to publish it. His report is very special, because as a player "of advanced tennis age (50+)", Jens had a lot of fun training with the young people at the professional camp. He took on the challenge, gave it his all and came away with a consistently positive “camp adventure” conclusion. Thank you Jens for your feedback and all the best and good luck!

Small but powerful - this applies perfectly to the TRIGGIN trigger button . It also suits us TennisTraveller because it is small, can be taken anywhere and anytime and is absolutely easy to use. And now the most important thing: the trigger button can really provide relief from painful tension And unfortunately we have that far too often, right? The trigger button is a kind of “Physio-to-Go” and is therefore worth its weight in gold, and not just when traveling. We took a closer look at the trigger button and the startup behind it, TRIGGin, known from the lion's den, for you. Of course, we also tested the trigger button ourselves and will tell you whether we are now completely relaxed!
And last but not least, we also want to get you to trigger and hopefully "relax" and consisting of two trigger buttons and a roll of tape until November 1st, 2023 So you can test how the little button works for you!
More than in keeping with our current padel special, we can tell you some great news today. Our cooperation partner Dunlop is entering into a strategic alliance with the Italian padel court specialist Favaretti. What we think is particularly great: a finished product has already "sprung" from this alliance: the "Favaretti Powered by Dunlop" padel court , which, in addition to the highest quality materials, has an ingenious appearance branded in Dunlop colors. More than stylish and the blue grass surface is identical to that on the World Padel Tour. But the court itself doesn't stop there, because as a buyer of such a court, Dunlop provides a very special starter set. All of the four different starter kits are worth 4,000 euros and, depending on your choice, include rackets, balls, bags, training equipment and much more.
So take a look at the chic, new padel court from Dunlop & Favaretti!
