Macquarie University Real Tennis Club

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Macquarie University Real Tennis Club (formerly the Sydney Real Tennis Club) played real tennis at Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia. Its only court closed on December 31, 2005, converted to other athletic uses. However, the university has agreed to provide land for another court as well as $AUS 350,000 toward its construction. The club is working to provide additional funds required to begin construction.

The real tennis club is still formally organized, and members may play at other real tennis clubs. It had been one of only five Australian real tennis clubs with courts, and now joins Real Tennis Perth as a club without a playing venue.
