Announcements
21st Aug, 2022 - Good morning, Please note that all the scores were updated according to the original schedule. There were a few no shows. However, the organisers tried to ensure all players get as many matches in as possible and not sit around when there is a no show. So some of the scores and matches will not be recorded as they were not on the original schedule or draws. The original match that did not take place…

About
The objective of Rainbow Kidz is to build a clearer and more easily accessible training and competitive pathway for players aged 10 and under. The focus is on being introduced to competition and learn the rules for matchplay.
Orange and Green ball singles and doubles matches are included during events. The aim is to give skills for life, get children into the game improve tennis skills and learn the rules so when they transition into the u/12 section they are more confident and prepared.
Orange – For players that are physically too small to compete on the normal size tennis court, as the size of the court will allow technical, tactical, physical and mental competencies to develop. First time players are recommended to enter the orange section.
Green – For players that can score and have some match play experience, even if it was just practice matches. Also, for better players to develop the necessary tennis skills and be better equipped to transition into the u/12 section.
We recommend parents engage and receive advice from the coach on which section to enter. If you are unsure please contact us at

Sadly, through no fault of the organisers on the day, the scheduling of matches and flow of the tournament was poorly executed.
Very difficult to plan and schedule matches with so many players either arriving late, or shockingly, not arriving at all.
The knock on, for all the other players, and the inconvenience for other parents, really left a bag taste in one's mouth.
The offending parents aren't really teaching these little aspiring sportspeople anything good.
Is there not a mechanism for disciplinary action of some sort? Such as a refundable deposit that will can be forfeited should a player not arrive?
Also, what are the age requirements for an "U/10" tournament? Shouldn't it be under 10? How is it fair to admit if the little ones when there are 12/13 year Olds winning the event? A little disheartening for the actual U10s I think. Kids don't enter themselves into these tournaments, so again, parents need to take some responsibility.
