52 Years of Tennis Tradition on Wangerooge

What began in 1975 as a small association tournament is now a firmly established summer event on Wangerooge. Over 50 years of tennis tradition have made the WFV Tournament an institution that many players participate in year after year, forming a close-knit community.

Tennis by the Sea

Tennis on a car-free North Sea island is a special experience. The island air, the wind, the short distances to the courts, and the island life all around make the tournament more than just a competition – it becomes a summer tennis holiday.

Competition and Camaraderie

The tournament is sportingly demanding, but at the same time thrives on a convivial atmosphere. After the matches, people meet on the beach, in the island village's cafés, or on the promenade. Many participants come with their whole family and combine the tournament with their summer vacation.

Organizer WFV

The Westphalian Tennis Association has been the long-time organizer of the tournament and ensures smooth running with professional organization. Registration is via the association's website; participant numbers are limited.

Wangerooge as the Venue

The tennis facility is centrally located on the island and is easily accessible on foot or by bike from all accommodations. Wangerooge is car-free; transportation on the island is exclusively non-motorized or by island railway.

WFV Tennis Tournament — edition 2026

From July 26th to 31st, 2026, the 52nd WFV Tennis Tournament will take place on the car-free North Sea island of Wangerooge. The organizer is the Westphalian Tennis Association (WFV), which has been organizing the tournament since 1975. Tennis players from all over Germany meet at the tennis facility in the island village for a week of sporty yet convivial competition. Registration is via the WFV website; participant numbers are limited. Arrival by ferry from Harlesiel and the island railway. Accommodation (holiday apartments, guesthouses) should be booked well in advance, as the island is very busy in mid-summer. The tournament is a firmly established summer tradition and a successful example of how sport and holidays can be combined in a special way.

The 52nd edition in 2026 continues the tradition maintained for over five decades. Many participants come with their families, turning the tournament into a shared island holiday with a sporting focus.

The WFV organizes the tournament with experienced referees and a well-thought-out schedule, ensuring that the competition can be reliably carried out even with changeable island weather.
