Officiating
Tennis officials play a crucial role in our sport and we are always on the look-out for more people to join our crew of officials in the NT. There are volunteer and paid opportunities for officials year-round at community tennis tournaments all the way to professional standard tournaments. We are proud to say that one of our local officials, Greg Dickson, is a nominee for the Official of the Year award at the 2024 Australian Tennis Awards to be held in December.
