Tennis ACT is committed to providing competitive play opportunities for tennis players of all levels in the ACT. The women’s league provides women with an opportunity to play in a women’s only league at the Canberra Tennis Centre, and now offers two exciting pathways:

Social (6:30pm start time): Perfect for those looking for a fun and relaxed way to play tennis, meet others and stay active. Flexible scheduling and a welcoming environment make this the ideal choice for social hitters, lapsed players and those short on time.

Compete (7:30pm start time): Designed for women who want a more structured and competitive experience. Whether you’re a seasoned player or ready for a challenge, this pathway offers a competitive atmosphere and UTR grading.

Choose to play weekly or join as it suits you at the Canberra Tennis Centre.
