About Tennis Ireland & Leinster Tennis:

Tennis Ireland is the National Governing Body for the sport of tennis in Ireland.

Tennis Ireland was founded in 1908 and has almost 180 affiliated clubs and engages with almost 80,000 players. Tennis Ireland stages Pro Tour events including the AIG Irish Open Championships and selects teams to participate in the Billie Jean King Cup, Davis Cup and other international events at Junior, Senior and Veterans level. Tennis Ireland also supports the delivery of a wide range of competitive, educational and development programmes at local, provincial and national levels.

Leinster Tennis is the largest Branch within Tennis Ireland accounting for 81 Clubs, up to 30,000 players, and a Junior Performance Squad of almost 300 boys/girls under the age of 18. Leinster Tennis is administered by the Leinster Branch Council which is elected annually by the members of the individual Clubs in Leinster. The Council, from its members, then elects its own officers – President, Vice-President, Secretary and Treasurer.

In addition to the work of the officers and its monthly meeting, the Council conducts its business through a number of sub-committees namely, Finance, Performance, Safeguarding, Competitions, Development, Seniors Tennis, Disciplinary, and Marketing.
