The Sydney Real Tennis Club is immensely grateful to the 300 or more people who have given selflessly and donated generously to create the real tennis court at Cheltenham
This is the culmination of many thousands of hours of heartache and pain over a ten-year period and is a tribute to the teamwork and resilience of everyone involved that we have been able to build the 50th real tennis court in the world!
For and on behalf of the Sydney Real Tennis Club,
