The best tennis club north of the river! We are situated in the City of Wanneroo, about 25 kilometres from the Perth CBD

History

The Wanneroo Tennis Club is the oldest and largest tennis club in the City of Wanneroo. Since then, it has grown significantly due to the hard work of its committee members and the tremendous support from sponsors throughout the years.  It was first established in 1975 by Trevor Johnson, a long-time resident and businessman in Wanneroo. Trevor of Crown Mushrooms was instrumental in establishing tennis in the City of Wanneroo. He went on to form a Northern Districts Tennis Association and other competitions as other clubs were established in the fast growing suburbs within the city.

The Club’s humble beginnings commenced at the Wanneroo Show Ground’s 2 courts. As the community grew, more courts were required and courts at the Wanneroo Senior High School were utilised by the Club.  With the support of the local Council at the time, a vacant land in Elliot Road was set aside for a massive 12-court tennis complex.  Subsequently, the Club has grown steadily since, with its Club house commissioned by Councillor Ray Ivan in 1984.

Club Facilities

We have 8 synthetic courts under lights and 2 hard courts.  Our clubroom is spacious with a TV, pool table and dartboard.  There is also a kitchen for those who enjoy a cup of tea and a licensed bar for those who enjoy something a bit stronger.

Regular court hire is managed through the City of Wanneroo’s Facility booking team; however, casual bookings can be made through the tennis court booking officer.  If you wish to book a court for a few hours outside of Club times, please follow the following link provided to us by the City of Wanneroo: http://www.wanneroo.wa.gov.au/directory_record/66/elliot_road_tennis_courts.

Outside, there is an enclosed children’s play area that has recently been upgraded (children should always be supervised by a parent) and a viewing deck to watch social play and tournaments.

Tournaments & Sponsors

With the financial support of our major sponsors such as Plumbers R Us and Hocking Dental, the Wanneroo Tennis Club has promoted fitness and tennis within the community for many years.  Tennis is provided at all levels for both Senior and Junior players in social play and also more competitive events.

The Club holds 2 major tournaments each year, one is the Men’s & Ladies Doubles Tournament and the other is a Mixed Doubles Tournament.  Our thanks to all of the sponsors, committee members  and members who have supported the Wanneroo Tennis Club over its 40 year history!
