About Us
Our Story
South Gisborne Tennis Club is a community-based, family-oriented club located at Gilligan Reserve on Millett Road. We’re a welcoming and inclusive club that doesn’t discriminate on membership – everyone, regardless of background, gender, race, age, or ability, is welcome to enjoy tennis with us.
We’re a fully digital club: membership renewals, court bookings, and club notices are all handled online, and our courts use a smart locking system integrated with our website – making it easy to book a court and get playing.
Facilities
Our club is home to six lit courts – four synthetic and two Plexipave, so you can play well into the evening. All courts are secured with a smart locking system integrated with our website, making bookings simple and secure.
We also have a sheltered area with a free electric BBQ, perfect for a post-match catch-up with friends and family.
