A welcoming and friendly place to play

At the heart of it, Collaroy Tennis Club is simply, a great place to play. And it’s been that way for over 100 years. The Club launched in 1922 when the first balls were hit in friendship on two newly built loam courts. Membership was opened and a Committee elected. The Club has come a long way since then, with 4 more courts added (5 synthetic grass and one acrylic-based hard court for wheelchair players and the training of top juniors), a great clubhouse that opened in 1989 replacing the old shed, and a membership base that’s grown to over 200.

SUSTAINABLE AND MODERN FACILITIES

Collaroy Tennis Club is recognised as a progressive community club, well led by a 'can do' management committee that has overseen more than half a million dollars’ worth of improvements in the last decade. These include the addition of solar panels and a solar battery (courtesy of Belle Property), LED lighting on all courts, wheelchair-access, new inclusive bathrooms/shower facilities (thank you Northern Beaches Council), new court surfaces (5 synthetic grass and one acrylic-based hard court) as required and permanent seating installed on each court. Inside the spacious clubhouse is a fully equipped kitchen, vending machines for snacks and drinks, a new table tennis table, a big-screen TV for presentations or watching the Grand Slams. Outside, there's a new BBQ in a large shaded outdoor area. Plus there’s free parking just outside the club and in nearby streets.

100 YEAR CELEBRATION

In 2022, Collaroy Tennis Club celebrated its Centenary – 100 years of providing tennis to the local community. It was an opportunity to look back and be proud of how far we’ve come and to share stories and engage with those who have helped shape the Club – past and present members, volunteers and the wider community. And while we reflected upon and celebrated our past, we now look towards the future, as we continue to cement our place as the best tennis club on the Northern Beaches and beyond. Our Centenary was celebrated with a Commemorative event attended by local dignitaries and a big Community Open Day called Racquets at the Reef that attracted hundreds of locals, celebrities and top level players. We conducted a raffle raising funds to upgrade facilities, along with a 100 Year Anniversary Party for past and current members and supporting partners.
