History
A history spanning more than 65 years
- Our doors opened many years ago. Yes, in fact, during 1949.
- A 30 yr old local resident of Brighton, his friends, their families, began playing Tennis and organizing competitive fixtures on private properties throughout Sandgate.
- 2 years on, then 1961, the “Sandgate and District Youth Tennis Association (S.D.Y.T.A.) was officially registered in Brisbane.
- Moving on, many highly ranked world recognized players, challenging Grand Slam Events originated here at S.D.Y.T.A.
- Currently 2014. We have an over 55 yr old team holding World Ranking, winning 6 International single and double titles.
- If you ask us now “Can our juniors follow their act?” our answer is “Yes”.
- SDYTA (now trading as “Sandgate Tennis”) lease this centre from Brisbane City Council as a “Not for Profit” organization.
The Management Committee, maintaining their dedication, offers to you this sport of Tennis at Brisbane’s lowest prices for the health and well being of all Tennis enthusiasts throughout Queensland, Australia.
