Romsey residents are ready to get back on the court.
Upgrades to three of Romsey Tennis Club’s courts are now complete, with the new modern facilities ready for local players.
Located within the Romsey Park Recreation Reserve, the project included resurfacing three courts with a durable synthetic surface, improving drainage, and installing new fencing.
The $228,000 project was made possible through Macedon Shire Ranges Council funding of $158,000, the club’s contribution of $50,000, Community Bank Lancefield and Romsey’s donation of $20,000 and in-kind support from local businesses including Newearth Constructions and The 1860 Romsey.
Mayor Dom Bonanno praised the club’s vision to make the upgrade happen.
“This is a great example of what can happen when willing partners such as council, community groups and businesses all work together,” he said.
“These upgrades courts are a real benefit to Romsey and a testament to the had work of the Rees family in particular, and will help more people get involved in tennis and stay active in general.
“Council is proud to support local sport and improve community facilities.”
