About Montville Tennis Club | History
The Montville Sports and Recreation Ground is located approximately 3 km south of Montville on the Montville–Maleny Road. It was formerly a thriving pineapple farm and part of the original selection of Thorvald Weitemeyer, later owned by the Ruddy family and then the Glover families.
1925: The pineapple farm gave way to the first sporting facility built at the grounds: tennis courts. The Sports and Recreation Grounds were developed in response to community needs for a venue in Montville, after the Village Green was redeveloped into a cultural precinct. The grounds were managed by a group of five trustees until management was transferred in 1993 to the Montville Village Association, to manage in trust for and on behalf of the people of Montville.
Early 1950s: An official tennis club was formed to manage the courts. This club operated for over 60 years, until it lapsed at the end of 2013.
5 June 2014: On behalf of the Montville Village Association, the Management Committee of the Montville Sports and Recreation Ground invited expressions of interest from community groups to form a tennis club.
As Trustee of the sports ground, the Montville Village Association, through the Sports Ground Management Committee, assumed management of the facilities and assets of the club in trust until a new club could be constituted. Assets included two tennis courts, a shed and a modest bank balance. The successful applicant would take over the tennis courts and clubhouse and agree to sign a seven-year lease agreement.
After many months of negotiation, the Montville Tennis Club was incorporated on
7 September 2018 following a members’ meeting held on Tuesday 13 August 2018, with the agreement of the Montville Village Association. Mr Wayne Parcell was elected inaugural President and Dr Brett Abbenbroek inaugural Secretary, later President.
We look forward to seeing you on the courts soon!
