Member protection 

As a club affiliated with Tennis NSW, we have adopted the Tennis Australia Member Protection Policy. The policy ensures all individuals involved in tennis can enjoy a safe and positive experience at all times. This includes our Newcastle Hill members and community. 

We have a Member Protection Information Officer (MPIO) as required by the policy. 

The MPIO is who you contact if feeling unsafe or have a concern when using our facilities. The MPIO listens and then directs the issue to the most appropriate person to handle the matter. All matters are confidential.

Contact our MPIO.

Our committee and our Coach have current Working with Children Checks.
