The Tennis Queensland Secondary School Team Tennis Competition is a state-wide initiative inviting all Secondary Schools to play competitive tennis at a regional level and culminate at a State Final annually.

Winning teams of the Open QSSTT Competition will be invited to represent Queensland at the Australian Schools Tennis Challenge.

In 2021, there will be a pilot Year 7-9 Competition run in some Regions. There will be no State Final for the Year 7-9 Competition in 2021. Tennis Queensland will evaluate the competition at it’s conclusion, with feedback from participating schools taken into consideration. Year 7 – 9 students can still play in the QSSTT open competition and should play in the competition they are suited to by ability.
