Thank you to everyone who joined us online for the forum. As I mentioned, we look forward to working together, as a community, toward 2024.

In a year that was heavily disrupted by the pandemic, especially here in Victoria, it was pleasing to see that adult participation rates in tennis increased by 21%.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This is also evident by our increase in online court bookings by 89% via the new Play Tennis website.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It is great to see more clubs are connecting online and onboarding with our new digital platform,\u00a0ClubSpark.
