Junior Tennis Players Shine At Regional Event

June 3, 2025

Talented young tennis players, Riley Carr and Miles Dahlstrom, proudly represented Ingham Tennis Association at the 2025 North Region Junior Development Series – Gold Pan Teams event, held in Charters Towers over the weekend of May 31st and June 1st. This event brought together junior players from across the northern region to compete in doubles and singles matches in mixed-club teams.

Riley captained his Division 1 team with confidence and determination, leading them through a series of hard-fought matches to finish as runners-up. His leadership, both on and off the court, earned recognition and respect from coaches and peers.

Miles played an important role in Division 2, competing as the number 3 player for his team. Demonstrating consistency and strong team spirit, Miles helped his side secure the division title, emerging as overall winners in their category. Both players showed impressive sportsmanship and skill, and their performances have made the local tennis community proud.

To inspire and support the next generation of players, free junior coaching sessions, sponsored by Powerlink Queensland, will be held at the Ingham Tennis Courts on Tuesday 17th June at 3:30pm-4:30pm for ages 5-9 and 4:30pm-5:30pm for ages 10-17. There will be fun games and tennis tips from our coach and club volunteers. These sessions are open to all skill levels and are a great opportunity for kids to get involved in the sport, meet other young players, and build their confidence on court.

To register, contact Coach Tom Casey on 0413 199 702 or visit the Ingham Tennis Association Facebook page. Come along and see where tennis could take you!
