This blog post explores the history and heritage of tennis in Queensland, tracing the evolution of courts from private residential and school settings to community spaces and major sporting venues. Focusing on the Queensland Heritage Register, the research examines how tennis heritage is currently represented, noting that while many places reference tennis in their histories, relatively few recognise it as a defining element of cultural significance.
