Sign in
In order for Tennis Victoria to deliver a safe and successful tournament we are required to implement a number of strategies including the use of a attendance recording application to record attendance for all players, spectators, staff and volunteers. The application we are using for this weekend’s Inter regionals is Sine Pro. All participants are required to download the app…

Once downloaded and registered you will simply need to scan the QR code on entry without the need to register every time you enter the facility.
