The Northern Territory tennis community came together in style on Saturday, October 18th, for the 2025 Tennis NT Awards Night, held at the magnificent Mindil Beach Casino Resort Grand Ballroom. The evening was a fantastic opportunity to pause and celebrate the hard work, dedication, and passion that have driven our sport across the NT throughout the year.
From the dedicated volunteers to our top coaches and most outstanding clubs, the energy in the room was electric as we honoured those making a significant impact on the court and in their communities.
A heartfelt congratulations goes out to all the recipients for their outstanding achievements.
