20 September 2024 | Tennis NSW

Tennis NSW are excited to once again be hosting the annual Tennis NSW Awards in 2024. The Awards recognise clubs, organisations and individuals in the NSW tennis community. These awards align with the national Newcombe Medal, Australian Tennis Awards. Winners of a Tennis NSW Award, for which there is an equivalent Newcombe Medal, Australian Tennis Awards category, will be the Tennis NSW nominee for that category.

In 2024, we are thrilled to invite all tennis volunteers, administrators, players, and officials from across the state to join us at the 2024 Tennis NSW Awards. The event will be hosted by Olympian, Grand Slam champion, and broadcaster Casey Dellacqua and will bring together the tennis community to acknowledge and reward the outstanding work of those who are making positive contributions to the NSW tennis community. We will also have the exciting opportunity to celebrate the 90th birthday of eight-time Grand Slam champion, Ken Rosewall, and reflect on his extraordinary career and contributions to the sport.

AWARD CEREMONY DETAILS:
When: Thursday 17 October
Time: 6:00pm – 10:30pm
Where: Le Montage, Lilyfield
Dress code: Cocktail
Event type: 3-course gala dinner including beer, wine & soft drink
