FREE School Holiday Court Hire At The Ingham Tennis Courts!

January 8, 2025

Looking for a fun and active way to spend your school holidays? The Ingham Tennis Association is offering free court hire day or night until Monday, the 27th of January 2025! Whether you're an early riser or prefer to play under the stars, courts 1 to 12 are available from 6am until 11pm!

Booking is simple! To access the courts, you’ll use a PIN code with a smart igloohome padlock on the gate adjacent to Court 6, facing Cooper Street. Your unique, one-time PIN code will be provided once you complete your booking, and if you’re playing in the evening, you’ll also receive an 8-digit PIN to operate the lighting controller, located near the power box by Court 3. Detailed instructions are available on-site for easy use.

Visit play.tennis.com.au/inghamtennisassociationinc for more details on the club and the court hire process to make your booking!

Once your account is set up, simply input your code at the electronic lock on the gates, located near Davidson Street, for access, and remember, if you need help at any time, feel free to reach out to Steve at 0488 763 270.

In addition to the free court hire, there will be two open days in January where the public can come and enjoy tennis with no charge. It’s the perfect opportunity for kids to try out the sport, with rackets available at the club if needed across both open days scheduled for Monday the 13th of January, and Saturday the 18th of January.

So, why not get the family together, get active, and enjoy the courts over the school holidays? Don't miss out on this great opportunity!
