Tennis in Queensland has received another major boost with the announcement of successful applicants from Round 122 of the Gambling Community Benefit Fund (GCBF), which closed on 1 December 2024.
A total of 12 tennis and complementary format projects have secured funding in this round, delivering much-needed upgrades, resurfacing works, and facility improvements across the state. In total, over $300,000 has been awarded to support these initiatives, helping clubs create more accessible and high-quality spaces for their communities.
