Gungahlin is one of the country’s fastest growing regions. Tennis is also a growing sport, and the new venue will help attract even more players.

“Tennis ACT is looking forward to the construction phase of the Amaroo Tennis Centre and a wonderful tennis facility for the community of Gungahlin and the greater ACT and region,” CEO of Tennis ACT Mark La Brooy said.
“After a number of years of planning, community consultation, Estate Development Planning and now the approval of the development application, this sees the realisation of a vital piece of infrastructure that will bring tennis to one of the important growth corridors in the ACT.”
The Gungahlin Tennis Facility will offer a range of programs for all ages.
These will include:
- Hot Shots Tennis and school programs
- Book A Court
- Cardio Tennis

- Junior and Senior Canberra Tennis League
- all-abilities programs.
Tennis Australia’s established tennis pathways will also help develop young players.
As well as keeping more young people in the sport, it will support many to realise their sporting dreams.
The new facility will also have capacity to host major tennis events, bringing more people to Canberra.
