Dear Victorian Tennis Community,  

Welcome to the October edition of the Tennis Victoria News.  

At the end of September we welcomed 26 Future Leaders participants to Melbourne to gain valuable tennis administration experience across three days, including a leadership workshop, team building and Foundation Coaching Courses. Each student is now dedicating 40 hours of volunteer time to their local club. We can’t wait to see them complete their projects over the Summer and continue to increase ways of recruiting and retaining volunteers in our sport.  

Congratulations to our Victorian 12/U and 14/U teams who competed in Adelaide last week in the National Hardcourt Championships in Adelaide. Ava Beck was runner up in the 14/u Singles and Doubles alongside fellow Victorian Koharu Nishikawa. 

Congratulations to Ross Patterson who won the B3 & B4 Singles titles, Peter Robinson who won the B2 Men’s Singles and Open Doubles, and Phoebe David who claimed runner up in the Women’s B2 Singles at the inaugural Blind & Low Vision National Championships last weekend. 

In case you missed it, we sent out the Tennis Victoria 2021-22 Annual Report this week. The Tennis Victoria Annual General Meeting on Wednesday October 12 at 6:00pm. To register for the AGM, please click here. 

Finalists were recently announced for the Victorian Tennis Awards to be held at Kooyong Lawn Tennis Club on Thursday 23 October. Congratulations to our finalists which can be found here. The event will be a hybrid of in-person and online, to view online please click here.   

A further reminder that there are many grant opportunities available to assist our affiliates. For more information on available club grants and funding opportunities, please visit The Clubhouse section of our website.     

Until next time, 

Adam Crameri – CEO
