QLD Mini Tennis Championships

The QLD Mini Tennis Championships is a doubles tennis tournament with a twist – all games are played on modified courts with modified equipment! Mini Tennis is a fun challenge for tennis players (and non-tennis players) of all levels and ages.

Mini Tennis draws on different skills and techniques than tennis, with speed and quick thinking trumping pure power. Men, women, juniors, experienced and non-experienced players find themselves on a level playing field with mini tennis!

The QLD Mini Tennis Championships are also a unique tournament as it is hosted by Return Serve as a fundraising avenue for our community-based sporting programs. All proceeds from the tournament go towards making sport available for everyone in the community, particularly those who face social or financial barriers to participation.

Mini Tennis Court Size and Equipment

Courts are 12m x 6m, using 6m pop-up nets. We use 23″ racquets with low-compression ‘Red Balls’.
