Tennis clubs across Australia are preparing to host thousands of players across the Easter weekend.
Easter tennis tournaments are steeped in history and legends of the game including Ken Rosewall, John Fitzgerald, Evonne Goolagong-Cawley, Neale Fraser and Roy Emerson have all competed in local competitions during their careers.
Many clubs can boast more than 110 years of Easter tournaments, and many incredible milestones will be celebrated in March 2024.
The Albury Easter Open in New South Wales will be contested for the 110th time, with luminaries such as Evonne Goolagong Cawley and Margaret Court amongst the list of past players to have graced the magnificent grass courts.
Victoria's Shepparton Easter Open Tournament will celebrate its centenary, and Western Australia's Beverley Annual Easter Tournament marks 90 years of competition.
"Seeing family and friends gather at tennis clubs across Australia to enjoy friendly competition is just another example of how tennis brings communities together, and has done so for well over 100 years," Tennis Australia Chief Tennis Officer Tom Larner said.
"It's also a reminder of the rich history of the sport in this country and it's wonderful to see so many clubs celebrating significant milestones while running successful tournaments, and attracting competitors of all ages and abilities.
"The dedication and passion shown by the club committees and volunteers is the reason these tournaments continue to thrive from year to year. Easter tennis is truly a showcase of grassroots tennis around the country."
