25.01.2022 Highmoor is thrilled to announce that we will be attending the Moorabbin Primary School fete on tomorrow (Saturday) from 10-4! We'll have a few cool activities organised and we would love to see you there!

25.01.2022 Social tennis is back on again at Highmoor today, starting at 1pm. There will only be two courts as opposed to the usual three, but if you do have times where you are left waiting for a match, you can inspect and admire our brand new fencing and lighting!

24.01.2022 Highmoor's Club Championships Finals are about to get started!! Juniors from 1pm and seniors from 2pm. Come down and check it out!

24.01.2022 Bad luck to our Boys Section 2 team who unfortunately went down in a close contest in their grand final today, losing by just six games. This is a brilliant result nonetheless, with section two offering an extremely high standard of tennis. Congratulations on a wonderful season! (Thanks to Fiona Ireland for the photo!)

24.01.2022 The inaugural grand final eve public holiday has finally arrived! One could argue that it is perhaps the perfect day for a hit of tennis?

23.01.2022 NEW WEBSITE!!!!! Highmoor is very proud to announce the launch of our brand new website! Check it out now! http://www.highmoortennis.org.au/

23.01.2022 DRUMROLL.... The winner of our Australian Open semi-final promotion is Jennie Armstrong! All names of entrants were placed into a hat and drawn last Saturday at our Christmas Barbecue. Well done, Jennie! An awesome prize and a very deserving winner.

23.01.2022 There is only one more day after today until our new and exciting membership year commences. This period will see us install new lighting and fencing, and Highmoor will be an extremely vibrant and active club as a result. For current members who have not renewed, please do so ASAP. Membership forms are on the home page of the website :) Thanks! highmoor.org

23.01.2022 Night tennis is back next Wednesday 24th Feb at 7pm! The price has dropped to $8 and we'll also be throwing on a sausage sizzle for the first week. Hope to see you there!

23.01.2022 Only two days left to access tickets to our Golden Jubilee for the discounted price of $65! Get in before 31st August!

23.01.2022 Bill is becoming famous!

23.01.2022 Social tennis is on again tonight at 7pm! See you there!

22.01.2022 TABLE TENNIS CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP!!! ...Doesn't that sound like something you would like to be part of? It's not official yet, but IF we can garner enough interest, a table tennis club championship could very much become a reality this October! If it were to happen, it would most likely happen in October, open to absolutely every member, in a round-robin format, with finals to take place after that. This could be the ultimate battle for glory!... If you would be interested in this event then please make yourself heard! Like, comment or send an email to Scott at [email protected] The table tennis table is always available in the clubhouse. Now get practicing ;)

22.01.2022 Happy New Year to all members of Highmoor! Hopefully 2015 exceeds all of your expectations!

22.01.2022 Our Boys Section 2 team is at Beaumaris Lawn Tennis Club right now to commence their massive semi-final! Get down there and show your support! Go boys!

22.01.2022 Just a reminder that tomorrow (Wednesday) night at 7pm social tennis will be running! Be there!

22.01.2022 Here is another update regarding the status of our lighting and fencing project. If you have been around the club lately, you would have noticed that a lot of the serious works have well and truly commenced, with the old fencing having been removed and the poles for the new fencing having already been installed. However, there is still lots to do, including finishing the fencing works, installing the light poles themselves and upgrading the power supply. Unfortunately, many o...f the contractors are pushed for time, and given that they have a break over Christmas and January, we have to regrettably announce that it looks like the final completion date may not be until February. Sorry for the inconvenience caused but hopefully it is just a case of some short-term pain for long-term gain. Courts 1-3 will be out of action for approximately the next two weeks, but once the new fencing is installed the courts will be available once more prior to other works commencing later this year or in the new year.

21.01.2022 A modern twist on a classic photo. From this photo of the first tennis playing day at Highmoor in 1965, today now marks the first day of our 51st membership year.

21.01.2022 How does a BBQ tomorrow night sound? Come down to tennis this Wednesday at 7pm for social tennis, and Highmoor will put on a sausage sizzle to feed you! Please use the link below to nominate your attendance:... https://docs.google.com//1khJC2L4_Fnrogko4ahFkDTZP-a/edit

20.01.2022 The 2015 Australian Open presale commences this Friday at noon. All members of Highmoor are also members of Tennis Victoria, and are therefore eligible to access this presale. However, you will need to know your 'My Tennis ID' number in order to access the sale. If you do not know it, please contact me (Scott Lyons) by private messaging this page, or by email or phone, and I can provide it to you. The presale allows you to get the best seats in a given fee category, rather than being stuck with the ones at the very back!

20.01.2022 Good luck to all those players starting the first round of summer comp today!

19.01.2022 Night tennis is on again tonight at 7pm. Being in the midst of finals action for comp, we are expecting quite a few good players to turn up. Everyone is welcome though! See you there!

18.01.2022 Just a reminder that your membership subs are now due, and you have until September 30 to renew and pay before the new membership period commences. Please head to highmoor.org to access the new membership form, and follow the details on the form that provide instructions regarding the renewal process. Thanks to those who have already renewed!

18.01.2022 This is a massive weekend for Highmoor's Boys Section 2 team! On Sunday they will be playing in their semi-final, to be held at Beaumaris Lawn Tennis Club at 9:00 am. The boys would love and appreciate your support if you are able to make it down and witness some great tennis. Good luck to everyone in the team! Stay tuned for (hopefully good) news after the weekend!

17.01.2022 Don't forget that Night Tennis is on again at 7pm tonight! Feel free to send a few texts out and gather some numbers!

17.01.2022 It's finals time! If you are in a senior comp team, this means either one of two things: a) you are taking part in the finals, and therefore a mid-week hit would be invaluable preparation, or b) your season is now over and so you are craving some tennis! Whatever category you sit in, Wednesday night social tennis sounds perfect for you! It kicks off from 7pm and many comp players attend so the standard of tennis is very high. Be there ;)

16.01.2022 Just a reminder that Highmoor's very own Australian Open night will be held this Wednesday, 20th January at 7.30 pm! A $5 entry fee will get you some great tennis, a sausage sizzle and soft drinks. Please RSVP asap if you are coming. Hope to see you there!

16.01.2022 NO SOCIAL TENNIS TODAY Due to the current fencing works, Saturday social tennis will not be held at Highmoor over the next three weeks. Instead, social tennis will be held at 1pm at Basterfield Park on Sundays. It is very close to Highmoor so we hope to see as many people there as possible!

16.01.2022 Highmoor is smashing records this year! We have recently gone past 203 members, and with more than six months left to go in the membership year, we are well on track to surpass last year's number of 209! Remember that Highmoor offers pro-rata rates to new members, so if you know anyone who is interested in joining the club, now would be a great time to trial Highmoor without having to pay too much.

15.01.2022 Don't forget, social tennis is on again tonight at 7pm! You can come for the starting time or any time thereafter. All members are welcome!

15.01.2022 Pictures from Highmoor's Christmas Barbecue are now up on our website! We were lucky enough to have Santa make a special appearance on the night! http://www.highmoortennis.org.au/members/gallery/

14.01.2022 50 years ago, Highmoor was born. Here is a picture of our founding members!

14.01.2022 Thanks to everyone who came down last night for Highmoor's Wimbledon Night! We had well over 30 people, with great tennis, great food and lots of fun shared by all! An enormous thank you to Damian Graf who did such a fantastic job in organising the event (and dominating the court with his wooden racquet)!

14.01.2022 In recent years Highmoor and Moorabbin Primary School (MPS) have formed a fantastic partnership. Our coach, Damian, runs tennis clinics for many of the students, and as a result MPS is becoming a great source of new members for Highmoor. On 1st August, MPS is hosting a BOGAN BINGO NIGHT!! All members of Highmoor have been explicitly invited to attend this great event which is sure to be enormous fun! You will have the chance to win some wonderful prizes. We would love it if we could have a table on the night to represent Highmoor. Details for how to purchase tickets can be found in the event details, but if there any queries then please contact Highmoor member, Felicity Wilkeson: [email protected]

13.01.2022 Happy New Year! Highmoor would like to wish you all the best for 2016! And what better way to start the year than to come down for Saturday afternoon social tennis? With five courts currently available, the afternoons are generally peaking at this time of the year! Attached is the Court Captains roster for January- April, 2016 http://www.highmoortennis.org.au///16-Jan-April-roster.xls

13.01.2022 Craving a hit of tennis? Why not come down tonight and play under our brand new lights?! Yes, Courts 1 and 2 are fully up and running!

13.01.2022 Hole-y smokes, Highmoor's lighting and fencing project is officially underway! Now that's one small hole by man, but one giant leap for the Highmoor Uniting Tennis Club!

13.01.2022 Great news, with our Boys Section 2 team being victorious in their semi-final on Sunday. Of course that means that this Sunday will be the big grand final! It takes place at 9.00am and will be held at Beaumaris Lawn Tennis Club. Go Highmoor!

12.01.2022 WIMBLEDON HITS HIGHMOOR! This coming Wednesday, 1st July, Highmoor will be hosting its very first 'Wimbledon Night'! Yes, this means proper Wimbledon court etiquette, i.e. you'll need to come dressed in white! To spice things up a bit we'd also love to see you test your skills with a wooden racquet. If you don't have one, hopefully we will have a couple of spares! We'll have continuous sets of night tennis until 10pm, and Wimbledon coverage will be on the TV inside. Pimms an...d strawberries and cream will be provided to help you get in the mood! Please see the flyer for full details. Importantly, please contact Damian Graf prior to coming so that he knows how many people to cater for!

12.01.2022 There are only two weeks left to access our early bird prices to Highmoor's Golden Jubilee event! If you book before 31st August you will be able to purchase tickets for just $65 per person- a saving of $10 per person. This event is not to be missed!

12.01.2022 While wooden racquets were enormous fun last Wednesday, if you want to up your game, come down again this Wednesday night where ALL racquets types will be welcomed! Note that those wishing to bring down their wooden racquets will not be discriminated against ;) Come ANY time from 7pm. $10 per person and new balls and great tennis will await you!

11.01.2022 If you enjoyed Highmoor's Trivia Night last year, this event may interest you! Highett Bowls Club is hosting their very own trivia night on 10th October, 2015, and all local sporting clubs and communities are invited to attend! The venue will be fully licensed with plenty of drinks being available at bargain prices! Please see the flyer for details.

11.01.2022 Just a reminder that Wimbledon Night is THIS Wednesday!! If anyone has any spare wooden racquets, please bring them along for those that don't have them. Not everyone will be playing at the same time so if you don't have one, still come as there should be enough to go around!!! And remember to wear white if you can ;) Please contact Damian Graf to confirm your attendance.

10.01.2022 Don't forget that Highmoor's Christmas Barbecue is on tomorrow from 6pm. Expecting a massive turn out so hope to see you there!

10.01.2022 Congratulations to Serena Williams and Stan Wawrinka on their recent victories at the French Open! Whilst great achievements, of course the more prestigious event to win is Highmoor's Club Championships. For all those fighting for glory this year, the draw is available in the Hooppell Pavilion!

09.01.2022 Just a reminder that there will be no tennis on tonight. It will be back next week though with a BBQ most likely being involved. Stay tuned for details!

07.01.2022 Want to WIN two tickets to the semi-final of the 2015 Australian Open? Highmoor is holding a special raffle open to all 2014/15 members, with this great prize up for grabs, valued at just under $500. There will be a total of 30 raffle tickets that can be bought. Each ticket will cost $20. If you would like to purchase a ticket, please do so by paying via EFT to the club's bank account and emailing Scott to give notice of your payment. Please note that the BSB written on the m...embership form is wrong, and the correct one is 633 000. As you can probably tell, there are great odds at winning relative to the price of a ticket. This is because the club will only be making minimal profit from the raffle. The winner will be announced at Highmoor's Christmas Barbecue in December, although you do not have to be in attendance in order to win. Tickets are selling fast so get in quickly! Good luck!!

In the Junior Girl's event, Emily Petch defeated Mai Doan. In the Women's Open (doubles), Ann Hannah and Nola Hardy finished as very deserving winners. Finally, in the Men's Open, Paul Luke was simply too good for Ben Abbott on the day, coming out on top.

03.01.2022 It may have happened two weeks ago, but better late than never! A massive congratulations to Highmoor's Section 1 team, winning their grand final four rubbers to one (one rubber incomplete) against Port Melbourne! The team on the day consisted of Paul Luke, Ben Abbott, Glenn Collins, Philippe Castermane and Jason Mahmoud, whilst Murray Ashton was unfortunately injured on the day. Well done on a terrific season and well deserved victory! Unfortunately we came agonisingly close to another premiership, with our mixed team losing by just four games, after being equal on rubbers.
