12 December 2025 | Tennis Queensland

The annual QLD Junior Teams Carnival 2025 kicks off tomorrow, Saturday 13 December, bringing together over 400 players from across Queensland and beyond for five incredible days of tennis!

We’re also excited to share that this year we are welcoming back teams from South Australia, Northern Territory and New South Wales. For the first time, we’re thrilled that Western Australia and South Korea will also be joining the tournament.

This year’s carnival has been reimagined to put team spirit, fair play, and player experience at the heart of the event. A new additional to the event will feature a teams-only format, giving players the chance to represent their region, build friendships, and enjoy the fun of competing together.

We’ve introduced tiered divisions to ensure fair and exciting matches for all skill levels, and added on-court coaching, so coaches can provide live advice and encouragement during play.

We’re excited to announce the official team lists! See the incredible line-up of players representing their regions in the 12s, 14s, and 17s age groups below.
