NEW Players: If you have never played in the Tennis Geelong competition, just give us an indication of your abilities on the registration form and we will contact you to organise a grading session or will liaise with your GLTC coach. If you have been playing or have played in the past, we look at your match centre stats to place you in the most appropriate section.  

During your registration, you can request to play with friends. We try to keep friends together whenever possible however this will depend on grading and numbers of players within each grade.
