 Daniela DE MARTINO (Monbulk) (13:45): Huge congratulations to the Ferntree Gully Tennis Club, which has officially been awarded Most Outstanding Club or Centre at the 2026 Victorian Community Tennis Awards. This recognition is so well deserved and reflects the incredible efforts of players, volunteers, coaches and families who have built one of the most welcoming, inclusive and vibrant clubs going around. Their all-abilities tennis program is without a doubt the best. I have had the absolute joy of visiting and watching their Thursday night sessions, and I can tell you I have never witnessed a program in a community sporting club quite like it. There is no question it makes a real difference in the lives of its participants and their families, and I thank them for creating this program, which goes from strength to strength.
