    Thank you for your question Richard. The Tea Tree Gully Tennis Club hold the lease over the facility with two netball clubs hiring the courts/building from the tennis club. The six new proposed courts are to be multipurpose for both netball and tennis usage. (FB)

    Thank you for your question. Should the project proceed as detailed, the Club will have their existing lease amended to include exclusive use of the additional courts, however options for community use of some of the new multi-purpose courts are being explored with the Club, who are very supportive of this approach. When you submit your feedback please highlight that this is something that is important to you. Kind regards, Felicity.
