The Big Tennis Racquet

Milton, Brisbane

The Big Tennis Racquet scored a sixty-one points out of one hundred. If you're into Tennis, it's probably worth the trip. The best part about this attraction is the tennis courts and or playgrounds nearby. They are truly 5-star. There is a dog friendly park and other large grassed areas for kicking/throwing balls as well. The gardens are beautiful, the scenery is beautiful. The BIG TENNIS Racquet is used as a monument on a major road of Brisbane so watch as you step back towards the gutter to get some shots - that you don't get collected by a passing vehicle. 

 OVERALL SCORE of the BIG TENNIS RACQUET (MILTON, BRISBANE)

61 / 100

Free? / Something to 'do' there? 

Yes, it's Free 

 "Yes there's a 5 star park/playground" besides tennis courts, there is an enormous, very scenic and attractive park for kids to play.

The playground is also out of this world and adults will be seen using it.

The playground is one of a kind and you'll find it will entertain your teenagers too, like a good obstacle course would.

The beauty of visiting the BIG TENNIS RACQUET is you will also see the BIG TENNIS BALLS and can play tennis/enjoy yourself at an awesome kids/adult playground (if you're into that sort of thing) 

Why doesn't the BIG TENNIS RACQUET have any strings? Probably because it would be a climbing hazard and would not be suitable next to the footpath/cycle path. But what if the head of the Racquet was filled in with board and the strings were painted? Well either way, because the racquet was missing the strings it lost a few points on "detail".
