Since 2019, Sydney Beach Tennis School has been bringing the fun, fast-paced sport of beach tennis to the Northern Beaches. Starting with a small group at Manly Beach, we quickly made Collaroy Beach our home, building a vibrant community of players of all ages and skill levels. Today, SBTS has expanded across the Northern Beaches — South Narrabeen and North Narrabeen— helping more people discover the joy, fitness, and social fun of beach tennis.
Our Vision
"To create an inclusive and vibrant beach tennis community in Sydney, where players of all ages and abilities can enjoy the sport, develop their skills, and experience the physical and mental benefits of playing on sand — including improved balance, low-impact fitness, stress relief, and a natural connection to the outdoors."
Our Mission
"Sydney Beach Tennis School delivers high-quality coaching, engaging programs, and exciting events that inspire participation, foster fun and skill development, promote health and wellbeing, and make beach tennis accessible to players of all ages and abilities, helping grow the sport across Sydney and Australia."
