The Ballarat Tennis Club, located on Larter Street in Canadian, Victoria, was established in 1984 as part of a modern renaissance of the ancient sport of real tennis.

Over the past four decades, the club has fostered a vibrant community of players and enthusiasts, contributing significantly to the sport’s growth in Australia. In 2024, members celebrated the club’s 40th anniversary with an on-court dinner, reflecting on its rich history and achievements. The event included the inauguration of a tennis library dedicated to former club captain Quinton Wilkinson and the release of a commemorative anniversary book by historian Phil Roberts.

Today, the Ballarat Tennis Club continues to thrive, offering a unique blend of tradition and modern competition for real tennis aficionados.
