Silver Servers tells the story of four ’Super Senior’ tennis players in their 80s and 90s — one of them the oldest living player in the world — as they prepare for the International Tennis Federation Senior World Championships; on their remarkable journey, they show us what drives them to keep on playing and competing, helping us realise what is possible in our own lives, whatever our age... and the joy in keeping on going. Tennis is the sport, but the game is life.
