Junior Competition
Our three Princes Hill junior competition teams battle it out with a mixture of singles and doubles play on Saturday mornings. Junior competition is a fantastic way for emerging players to challenge themselves on the court, and build resilience as they navigate their wins and losses with their team-mates.

New Hardcourts!
Our hardcourts were resurfaced over the school holidays as the first stage of our court refurbishment process. They are now a beautiful two-tone green, chosen to be sympathetic to our surrounds. We have new nets, new net posts, and the courts are beautiful to play on. We even arranged for the Council to trim the trees around the lights for full after-dark illumination.
The courts are available for booking now.
Women’s Social Back for 2021
Our wildly popular Women’s Social program returns every Tuesday evening during term-time. Women’s Social is a weekly program for women to have a regular hit with great people in a fun, supportive, and social environment at one of Melbourne’s most beautiful tennis clubs.
Our best coaches will take you through a lively hour of skills, drills, matchplay and fitness work, followed by a catchup in the Clubhouse. Get fit, have a hit, and get to know other people you can play with in the future.
$15 members, $20 non-members. All welcome.

Champions!
It was a great season for PHTC in the popular NSNTA competition, which gives members the chance to catch up with teammates and test skills against well-matched opponents. Our mixed doubles team and two of the men’s teams made the finals of the spring season, and the icing on the cake was a victory for our men’s B Grade side, who defeated Oak Park in the final. The autumn season begins the first week of February, see more details about the competition and how to join, contact our Competition Co-Ordinator Sandy Hopper on 0417 177 767 or sandyhopper7@gmail.com.

Princes Hill Tennis Club is launching a new, commitment-free tennis program for adults, no experience necessary.
Open Court Sessions is a new Monday night social event that is open to everyone, celebrating tennis through fresh, new game formats in an accommodating and commitment free environment.
The 90 minute session will have you enjoying casual tennis in a relaxed format. The evening is made up of two parts; 30 minutes off-court with food and drinks, and 60 minutes on-court time for swinging, slamming and smiling, with a great soundtrack pumping through the evening.
Open Court Sessions is for anyone who has ever thought ‘I love tennis, I used to play’ or ‘I want to play tennis again, I just don’t have anyone to play with’. It’s a solution that allows for all styles of play. For every level, for every age, for every person. If you’re an ex-tennis player keen to pick up a racquet again, Open Court Sessions provides a fun option to get back into the sport where the social side is just as important as the on court activities. And if you don’t have gear or equipment, no worries. We’ll provide racquets and balls, and the first Open Court Sessions event will include spot prizes for players who are getting sporty and social.
Open Court Sessions will be running every week on Mondays in February and March at Princes Hill Tennis Club. So book now! It’s time to get your racquet on. Make a racket, have some fun – it’s tennis time.
Week 1: Monday, 3 February. Then every Monday to 23 March.
Time: 7.00-8.30
Cost: $20/session

PHTC Member Florian Kostov did the Club proud as a member of the North Suburban Junior Tennis Association team that took out the Frank Sedgman Cup in Traralgon last weekend.
More than 60 of Victoria’s top players aged 11 and under took part in one of Tennis Victoria’s flagship events, where the NSJTA team defeated North Eastern Junior Tennis Association in the final.
Congratulations Florian!
