Save the date for the next Perth Children’s Hospital Foundation Tennis Classic – Sunday May 3, 2026.

It will be the 26th annual tournament since the first one was organised in 2000 by Mr Ken Bennett. They have appeared under various “brand names” over the years but always for the same good cause: the kids in the Perth Children’s Hospital. After being kindly hosted by Next Generation King’s Park at their beautiful facility for many years, we have, in more recent years, been especially indebted to the committee and members of Cottesloe Tennis Club, who have also provided a magnificent venue for the event.

One of the most important and enduring features of the PCHF Tennis Classic is the great atmosphere that prevails through the spirit and good heartedness of the people who enter (n.b. That does NOT mean a lack of real competition on the court!! 😊 ). The PCHF Tennis Classic is always fully booked long before the close-off date. Every effort is made to ensure we accommodate a large group of ‘regulars’ who have supported the event year after year, but the active aim is also to spread the involvement and engage players from various tennis clubs in Perth and the Margaret River region.
Matches are played as a round-robin in mixed doubles pairings arranged into divisions of similar-strength teams. Division levels range from “hot stuff” to “social – tries hard”, so everyone has a place. You can see more on the play format of the day by clicking on “Format” in the above Menu or in the footer below.

The enjoyable company, the amazing cake stall, great raffles, and silent auctions for prizes generously donated by our fantastic supporters add a lot of fun. You can get a taste of the day by checking out the photo gallery.

Also, please check out our supporters and support them whenever you can. Without their generosity, the PCHF Tennis Classic would not exist, and we would miss the funds to help the kids in PCH.
