The sessions will be taken by qualified coaches, and all equipment will be provided.
Tennis Wales lead for disability tennis, Stuart Baker, said: “The open day is an opportunity for people with a range of disabilities, of all ages, to come and try tennis.

Tennis Wales also runs an Open Court programme, funded in partnership with the Lawn Tennis Association.
It collaborates, trains and invests into partners across Wales to open tennis up to disabled people of all ages, abilities and impairments.
This includes learning disability tennis, wheelchair tennis, visually impaired tennis and deaf tennis sessions.
Tennis is also expanding its offer into other long-term health conditions such as mental health and dementia.
