Tennis enthusiasts in Kangaroo Point find a safer and more convenient way of reserving a court through online booking.
The Kangaroo Point Sports and Tennis Club has started using the smart new booking system launched by Tennis Queensland. With the high-tech system, people can access the tennis facility through keyless entry. The booking system can allow entry to tennis courts 24 hours a day, but players can only use the Kangaroo Point tennis courts from 6am to 9pm.
Head coach Mark Toohey said that the new keyless entry system is going well for the club. People have been asking about the system since it was activated.
To book under the new Book a Court system, go to the bookacourt.tennis.com.au website, select the time and number of hours, then reserve. Once reservation is done, the system connects with a security keypad at the court. The person will receive a unique booking pin, which will have to be entered at the gate located at 51 Darragh Street. The system will automatically turn on the lights on the reserved court.
Twenty other clubs across Queensland have registered and are pilot testing the program. Only clubs affiliated with Tennis Queensland can use the online booking system.
