Here’s a web link for ALL enquiries and reservations for court hire and lessons.

Court Usage Policy

The Manly Tennis Centre (Scott & Carmela) have a long term facilities’ management contact with the club.

The Manly Tennis facility is a dual use facility with the courts shared between MLTC and MTC.  MTC controls the hiring of ALL courts for public play, private coaching, competitions and functions OUTSIDE of the designated Club Play times.

Courts for play by club members are available as follows:

• Club Member Play

• Court Use Priorities for Club Members

Organised Play:  Courts are reserved for organised social and competitive play for club members on Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Public Holiday afternoons and designated events such as the Club Championships.

Visitors of club members, including family who are non-members, must pay a ‘visitor fee’ to MLTC prior to play.

Reservations:  At ALL other times, a reservation is required with the Manly Tennis Centre (MTC) to use the club courts. Reserved play is limited to 1-hour for hitting sessions or singles and to 90-minutes for doubles play.  To reserve a court, players must make a booking for court usage at least 1-day in advance, listing the names of the players on the reservation.  Members must vacate any reserved court if other members are waiting to play at the conclusion of play.

• Non-Club Member Play

Non-club member play means play outside of the club hours published above.

MTC (Scott) controls the hiring of ALL courts for public play, private coaching, competitions and functions OUTSIDE of the designated Club Play times.

Personal Hire: Additional member play may be available outside of Club Play Times either on a paid hire or an occasional  goodwill  basis which is dependent on MTC’s management policy, court usage and court conditions.

While MTC has always been generous in accommodating such members’ requests, nevertheless to ensure there are NO misunderstandings and as a courtesy, before play please contact MTC to ascertain court availability and to make a personal reservation. Court costs are the responsibility of the member(s) booking a court.

Visitors of club members, including family who are non-members, must sign with MTC and pay a fee to MTC prior to play.

The Club has reached saturation point for members and is tightening requirements for FULL memberships. FULL memberships will only be considered from players of sufficient playing standard.

We will be pleased to arrange a trial for anyone who is NOT sure of their playing standard. Trials are scheduled on Thursday or Saturday afternoons.

Applications for Junior and Mid Week memberships are available on a case by case basis and also include a playing trial.  Even so, these prospective members MUST be capable of playing at least the lowest standard of competition at our Club.

Prospective new members are most welcome to visit and play at the Club on a Saturday or Thursday afternoon.  Please introduce yourself to our members or our Head Pro, Scott Blackburn.
