On Thursday, 10th October, the Keysborough Tennis Club was presented with the Top 50 Club award for 2019 by Tennis Victoria.  The club’s final ranking was 39 and is the first tennis club in the City of Greater Dandenong to receive this award. The award was presented by Ruth Holdaway, the CEO of Tennis Victoria.  Also present at the presentation was Phillip Horsburgh (President), Neil Cooper (Treasurer), Ailsa Williams (Secretary), Lisa Fitzgerald (Head Coach), Lilie Cooper (Member)

This award is based on the number of players registered at the club including casual Book-a-Court players and recognises the significant contribution the Keysborough Tennis Club has made to the sport of Tennis.  

The Keysborough Tennis Club has grown significantly since 2016 when it first introduced the Book-a-Court system with its membership base growing from 225 to 588 members and a casual player list of 330 non-members.  

The first tennis club in the City of Greater Dandenong to introduce this system, Book-a-Court allows casual players to book courts at the club both during the day and at night-time under lights without the use of keys.
