The club would like to provide a greater number of organised and structured events for Juniors, as well as the provision of tennis balls for junior club play & possible travel assistance to teams representing the Club. The success of the programme will depend to a large extent on the assistance of parents. Co-ordination of Junior Club events will be taken on the QTC committee and Mark Milburn. This season the following Junior sessions and competitions will be offered:-

PARENT CHILD TOURNAMENT - Sunday 15 November 2020, 9am start
The Parent-Child tournament is a fun event designed to get parents playing tennis with their kids. Of course, the interpretation of parent and child may be somewhat loose. Whilst many of the entries may be senior player+ junior player, there is no reason why the parent can't be 75 and the child 50, or even grandparent + grandchild. Queenstown Tennis Club gratefully acknowledges the support of KAPPA Japanese restaurant in the staging of this event. Online entry form.
JUNIOR CLUB CHAMPIONSHIPS - Sunday 28th March 2021
The QTC Junior Club Championships will be singles only with doubles played if time allows. Events will not be staged in traditional age groups but according to playing ability, as determined by the event organiser. Please complete the official entry form to register your child's participation.
