Without a doubt, the highlight of May was the Victoria Community Tennis Awards. Attendees witnessed amazing stories of achievement and the impact of so many people in our community. Congratulations to all the winners and finalists!
The Victorian Community Tennis Awards coincided with National Volunteer Week – a special week to say thank you to the volunteers who are the heartbeat of our sport, but as you will well know we love to recognise community tennis volunteers and influential people throughout the year.
Great examples include our Community Champion of the Month winners and Affiliate of the Month. All of these groups are doing great things in the community. Click on the links above to learn more. There are some great case studies that we think many of you will find useful.
Volunteers are also recognised through our Service Awards program. We recently presented Fiona Wilson of Belvedere Park Tennis Club with the Tennis Service Award. Fiona is a stalwart of tennis in the Peninsula area and we are grateful for her service. Throughout the year you can nominate deserving volunteers for the Service Award. Visit our website for more information.
And finally, at last night's Victorian Sport Awards, Tina Keane was named Community Coach of the Year and Hayden Eastwood was named Volunteer of the Year, following on from his win last year. Congratulations to Tina and Hayden!
Happy Hitting
Tamasa Harding
Interim Chief Executive Officer
