The Spring Series entry form can be picked up from the Clubhouse or downloaded as a PDF file here.  The printed entry form can be used to enter a single tournament or multiple tournaments.  For Doubles Tournaments, each player must lodge an entry form.  Doubles entries will not be accepted unless a partner is nominated and that player also lodges an entry.

Entries can also be lodged on-line via the Tennis Australia Tournaments Website (http://tournaments.tennis.com.au).

The direct links for on-line entry are:  

Spring Series Doubles Tournament

Spring Series Singles Tournament

Spring Series Mixed Doubles Tournament

Players can also use these links to check that their entries have been received and to check who else has entered.

N.B. When players go to enter on-line, they are asked to create a Tournament account if they don't already have one.  To create a Tournament account, players need their 11-digit Tennis Australia My Tennis Player ID Number (starting with '61').  Unfortunately, although the Tennis Australia on-line tournament entry system still requires the 11-digit My Tennis Player ID Number, Tennis Australia has stopped issuing Player ID Numbers automatically for new registered players.  This means that players who do not have a Player ID Number, or don't remember their number, need to contact Tennis Australia via or 1800 752 983 to obtain their number or have a number created for them (info required - name, address, birthdate, e-mail address and a phone number).
