Tennis centre hits an ace

Hume Tennis and Community Centre has been named Tennis Victoria’s Club of the Year.

The prestigious accolade celebrates the Centre’s excellence in tennis service, community engagement, and contribution to tennis in Victoria.

Hume Tennis manager Tim Connelly said its exceptional facilities, passionate coaching team and welcoming community have made the centre Victoria’s premiere tennis club.

“It’s truly amazing to receive such recognition,“ he said.

“For the club to achieve this in only its ninth year of operation is a testament to the hard work, dedication, and passion that every member, staff, and volunteer has poured into making Hume not just a place to play tennis, but a wonderful community hub where everyone feels at home.”

Mr Connelly urges everyone to give tennis a go, and says the Hume centre is the perfect place to get started.

“Whether you’re a seasoned player or someone who’s never held a racquet, our doors are open to everyone. We invite the whole family to come and see why Hume Tennis and Community Centre is now Victoria’s Club of the Year,“ he added.
