Tennis Websites

Welcome to the Official Website of the IC of Australia

The International Tennis Club of Australia - the IC - is Australia’s player alumni.

Our Club was created in 1951 to preserve friendships and promote goodwill between players and countries, upholding values of sportsmanship and fair play, with Australia’s legendary champions Adrian Quist and Frank Sedgman two of the driving forces. 

Today, the IC upholds those same values, bringing current and former players together, organising events in Australia and internationally with our 40 worldwide counterparts, keeping the tennis family connected, providing tennis, social opportunities and giving back to the game. 

The IC’s purpose is to enrich the lives of former tennis players.

Beyond the Tour is an initiative of the IC Australia, assisting retiring and retired players transition to life after the tennis tour, with advice, practical support, networking and a helping hand. 

We also encourage the current player group to think about what life might look like Beyond the Tour.

If you’re a current or former pro player, we hope to see you soon as a Member of the IC, our tennis family.

Update on IC Council Events 2021

Date: 6th July 2021

We hope all our IC Members are keeping safe, well and hopefully getting to play some tennis. The health, safety and well-being of members is a priority  so unfortunately, we have had to cancel or postpone some events this year. We continue to closely monitor the situation. As of July 2021, the events below are scheduled for the remainder of the year. Most recent changes include the postponement of the Uruguay 40th anniversary event until April 2022, and the postponement of the Potter Cup until October 2021. Unfortunately we have very regrettably, after considerable discussions, cancelled The IC Rod Laver Worldwide Junior Finals. We are planning a Zoom meeting for the finalist teams with Rod Laver and will present them with special “Finalist medals”. Please see the relevant events page for further details.
