Quotes attributed to Mayor Stretch Kontelj OAM:
I welcome the Liberal Party's commitment to the Geelong Regional Tennis Centre, bringing us a step closer to making this world-class facility a reality.
It's a significant project for our region, with the potential to benefit tennis at every level, from local clubs and community participation through to high-performance training and international competition. That's why Council has committed $13 million, alongside a further $1 million in funding and in-kind support from Tennis Victoria and Tennis Australia.
I want to acknowledge the tremendous work of Tennis Australia, Tennis Victoria, Tennis Geelong and the wider regional tennis community in championing this vision and making the case for Greater Geelong.
With the Victorian state election approaching, I'm calling on all candidates to recognise the value of this project, commit to providing the funding needed to deliver it, and establish Armstrong Creek as a regional hub for tennis in this country.
