Reading the news
tennis newstennis news

Reading news on this website is easy. When you come to our website at our index page, you will be confronted with three columns: the centre column which contains the main content on the site, the left column which contains the latest tennis news and the right column which is known as my eyetennis. This is where active users from the website have created player scout reports, active discussions are available for you to chat with fellow tennis fans and latest user articles. These are tennis stories written by fellow eyetennis users. The centre column of the website is where the tennis news story will always be displayed.

Alternatively, you can read the news by using our own news filter. This page is the equivalent of an archive; you can have the tennis news the way you want it.

Getting the news

If you love RSS and use blog readers; why not consider using our RSS feeds? We have several seperate feeds, one for the latest news. These XML feeds can be placed directly into your reader and the articles are refreshed at least every hour.

Creating news

The first box is the main paragraph (one paragraph only) where you will write the header to the article. This paragraph is displayed on the index page and is displayed in bold font. The second box will contain the main article content. This content is where you can enter any text relating to the tennis story.
