The Australian Teams Championships is underway, with New South Wales aiming to build on last year’s success and secure more national titles.

In 2025, NSW claimed victory in the boys 15/u Australian Teams Championships to win the prestigious Wayne Reid Cup. In another strong result, NSW shared the honours in the 11/u Margaret Court Cup (Girls) with joint winners declared in the category for the first time in the event’s history.

Now in its 43rd year, the prestigious national event enters an exciting new chapter, featuring a revamped format creating more opportunities than ever before for emerging players and coaches.

More than 200 players will represent their state or territory at KDV Sport on the Gold Coast from today through to Saturday 4 July, competing for national titles across the 11/u, 13/u and 15/u age groups.

First held in 1983, the Australian Teams Championships has played a pivotal role in developing Australia’s next generation of tennis stars for more than four decades.

The event has provided a launching pad for some of the country’s greatest players, including Ash Barty and current stars Talia Gibson, Kimberly Birrell, Nick Kyrgios and Thanasi Kokkinakis, who all proudly represented their states during their junior careers.

For the first time, 12 teams will contest each age group, with the addition of an All Stars team and an Australian Country team, joining representatives from every state and territory, as well as Pacific Oceania and New Zealand.

The expanded format has been designed to create more competitive matches throughout the week, while increasing opportunities for players and coaches to gain valuable national level team experience.

The All Stars team has been selected based on performance throughout the season, while the Australian Country team has been introduced to provide greater opportunities for talented players from regional and non-metropolitan areas.

The 2026 Australian Teams Championships forms part of the De Minaur Junior Tour, which features more than 250 tournaments across Australia and plays a vital role in developing the next generation of Australian tennis stars.
