Answer Tennis has a long history (deriving from the 'jeu de paume'), but its establishment as the modern sport can be dated to two separate roots. In 1859 Major Thomas Henry Gem, a solicitor, and his friend Batista Pereira, a Spanish merchant, who both lived in Birmingham, England played a game they named "pelota", after a Spanish ball game. The game was played on a lawn in Edgbaston. In 1872 both men moved to Leamington Spa, and with two doctors from the Warneford Hospital, played pelota on the lawn behind the Manor House Hotel (now residential apartments). Pereira joined with Dr. Frederick Haynes and Dr. A. Wellesley Tomkins to found the first lawn tennis club in the world, and played the game on nearby lawns. In 1874 they formed the Leamington Tennis Club, setting out the original rules of the game. The Courier of 23 July 1884 recorded one of the first tennis tournaments, held in the grounds of Shrubland Hall (demolished 1948). In December 1873, Major Walter Clopton Wingfield devised a similar game for the amusement of his guests at a garden party on his estate at Nantclwyd, Wales. He based the game on the older sport of indoor tennis or real tennis ("royal tennis"), which had been invented in 12th century France and was played by French aristocrats down to the time of the French Revolution.

Real tennis From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search It has been suggested that Jeu de paume be merged into this article or section. ( Discuss Jeu de paume in the 17th century. Real tennis is the original racquet sport from which the modern game of lawn tennis, or tennis , is descended. It is also known as jeu de paume in France , "court tennis" in the United States , and "royal tennis" in Australia. The term "real" may be a corruption of "royal" and related to the game's connection with royalty during its heyday in England and France in the and 17th centuries . Others believe that "real" was first used at the end of the century as a retronym to distinguish it from the then recently invented game of lawn tennis. Real tennis players often just call the game "tennis", describing the modern game as "lawn tennis". Real tennis is still played by enthusiasts on about 35 existing courts in the United Kingdom Australia , the United States , and France . The sport is supported and governed by organizations around the world Contents History Manner of play Real tennis in literature Real tennis in film ... edit History The term "tennis" derives from the French word tenez
