Tennis opens return to Hume

Hume Tennis and Community Centre will host the Victorian and Melbourne wheelchair tennis opens again next year.

Hume Tennis manager Tim Connelly said he is excited for the competitions which will run from January 13 to January 24 in Craigieburn.

“It is shaping up to be another great summer series,” he said.

The world number seven quads player, Jin Woodman, 16, from Sunbury said he is excited to play at his home club again.

“The weather here can be unpredictable but I’m used to it … that’s an advantage.”

“This was my very first club … after I hit the first ball, I felt a connection.”

Finn Broadbent, 24, said he was proud of winning the first round in both singles and doubles during the 2024 summer series.

“It’s very special to be back at home… [and] to have family and friends come down and watch.”

Hume Tennis also runs a Saturday afternoon hub for people to come and try wheelchair tennis.
