The Tennis West Leagues and Competitions Committee has today finalised the teams who will compete in the 2023/24 Tennis West State League Competition.

Tennis West State League has undergone significant changes over the past couple of years. This is the result of the need to reestablish the footprint of this competition to play a pivotal role in the development of our high-performance players, clubs, coaches, umpires, and officials. Tennis West has identified the need to create a competitive tennis product this is going to drive the marketability and sustainability of Western Australia’s top tennis competition.

After a thorough consultation process with existing and interested clubs the future of State League was voted on by the stakeholders to remain as a men’s and women’s competition with six teams in each league.
