The Beecroft Lawn Tennis Club was established in 1898. Over 100 years
of sporting tradition. Beecroft has 5 tennis courts - 3 natural lawn courts and
two synthetic grass courts. The clubhouse is simple and well furnished and
families with young children are able to use the facilities as we are not
licensed.
The natural lawn courts are open to members from February to October
each year. Annual (grass court) renovation is undertaken November through
January. The synthetic courts are open for members and hirers from 7am to
10.30pm every day of the year.

and arrange sets on club days. Whilst most members only play on one of these
club days, both lawn and synthetic courts can be used at other times provided
hirers are not using the synthetic courts and/or the lawn courts are not
required by the groundsman for mowing/marking/watering etc.
Visitors are always welcome and should be introduced to the convenor on arrival.
A fee of $10 per visitor is payable. Restrictions exist on the number of times
any one visitor can play except under special circumstances decided by the
