Tennis Profile & Competitive Play webistes Update – Thursday 28 May 2026

We’ve made some improvements to the Tennis Profile and Competitive Play websites to help streamline the experience. Here’s what’s new:

Update your profile directly from League Manager

Previously, League Manager users had to jump between different sites to keep their profile details up to date. We’ve now added an “Update Profile” option directly within the League Manager menu. This allows you to manage your personal details and profile settings seamlessly.

We’ve also renamed the League Manager “Profile Settings” menu to “App Notifications” to make it clearer where to go to manage your alerts for League Manager.

A smoother experience when linking child accounts

We’ve refined the process for parents and guardians linking a child’s profile to their account. To make the process clearer and more reliable, we have:

Added loading indicators so you know your request is being processed.
Updated the wording to be clearer and more consistent throughout the request.
Improved the “Link Request” flow, including a new “Submit Request” button.
Fixed unlinking behaviour, ensuring that if a profile is unlinked, it is removed from your Family tab immediately.

What’s coming next

We’ll continue to focus on improving the experience, such as but not limited to; allowing direct access to profile management from the Tournaments site, a fix for Google sign-in users and other minor enhancements.

If you have any questions or need help, check out our Support Centre for more information and resources. Alternatively, please don’t hesitate to contact our friendly team on 1800 PLAY TENNIS (1800 752 983) or email [email protected].

Tennis Profile & Competitive Play Website Update – Friday 8 May 2026

We’ve made some improvements to the Tennis Profile experience to make it easier (and more reliable) for parents/guardians managing child profiles. Here’s what’s new this week:

Improved “Promote Child to Adult” account experience

We’ve made a series of fixes to the “Promote Child to Adult” account process to help it work more consistently and avoid confusing outcomes. This includes improved guidance and clearer messaging when something goes wrong, and safeguards to help prevent duplicate account creation.

Smoother Child Profile saving & loading

We’ve also improved the way child profile details load and save, including better loading indicators and preventing actions until the page is fully ready. This helps reduce cases where older information briefly appears after saving.

Downstream updates flowing through more consistently

When a child profile is promoted, we’ve improved the reliability of updates flowing through to other areas like Match Centre and Tournaments, so changes are reflected consistently.

What’s coming next

Tennis Profile & Competitive Play Websites Update – Friday 3 April 2026

We’ve made some improvements to the Tennis Profile and Competitive Play websites to help streamline the experience. Here’s what’s new this week:

Clearer Error Messages on the Tournaments Website

We’ve updated our error messages across the Tournaments website to be more specific and actionable. If something goes wrong with your sign-in or profile validation, you’ll now see exactly what needs fixing, helping you resolve problems easier and reducing the need to contact support.

Profile Switching Guidance for Accounts with linked Profiles

We’ve added new guidance and prompts on both Match Centre and the Tournaments website to help parents and guardians switch between linked Child profiles. These updates make it easier to ensure you’re acting as the correct profile when registering or managing details.

Consistent Profile Details Across All Platforms

Your profile details are now kept in sync across Tournaments, League Manager, and Match Centre. This means you’ll see the same, up-to-date information no matter which platform you’re using, helping to avoid confusion and eligibility issues.

What’s coming next

Looking ahead, we will be looking at further improvements such as, but not limited to; allowing direct access to profile management from the Tournaments site, further improvements to account switching, a fix for Google sign-in users and other minor enhancements.

Tennis Profile & Competitive Play websites Update – Friday 27 March

We’ve rolled out a range of improvements to Tennis Identity to make your experience smoother, more reliable, and easier to manage.

Here’s an overview of what’s been updated today:

UTR Activation – Clearer Guidance and Fewer Loops

Players activating their UTR Rating will now see clear error messages and next steps if activation fails, instead of getting stuck in a loop. This means you’ll know exactly what to do if something goes wrong, and make connecting your UTR Rating more reliable so you can complete your Competitive Player Profile and get on court.

Improved Error Messages for Sign-In and Profile Issues

We’ve updated our error messages across Tennis Profile and League Manager/Match Centre to be more specific and actionable. If something goes wrong with your sign-in or profile validation, you’ll now see exactly what needs fixing, helping you resolve problems easier and reducing the need to contact support.

Tennis Profile pages – Incremental Improvements

We’ve made a series of small but important updates to the Tennis Profile portal, including clearer button labels, improved tips, and better mobile rendering. These changes make it easier to navigate and reduce the risk of errors managing your profile.

Better Guidance for Linking Child Profiles

Parents and guardians will now see improved instructions, contextual help, and updated support documentation. This helps prevent duplicate accounts and makes onboarding smoother for linking Child profiles to your account.

Missing Match History and Ratings

We’ve delivered improvements to how match results and ratings are processed between Match Centre, Tournaments and UTR Sports. This means your match data and ratings are more accurate, improved processing of results and reducing support queries.

Coming next week

Looking ahead to next week, we’ll be rolling out further improvements including clearer error handling on the Tournaments site, better support for Google social sign-in users, updated information to help with account switching and other minor enhancements.

Switch to your child’s profile in Match Centre / Tournaments

If you’ve linked your child’s account to your parent or guardian profile, you may notice that you can’t enter competitions or complete certain actions on their behalf. This happens because you need to be logged in as your child, not as yourself, to access these features.

Follow the steps below to switch to your child’s profile.

Steps

1	Sign out of your parent account – From Match Centre or Tournaments, click Manage > Sign Out
2	Return to the login page – You will be taken back to the main login screen
3	Sign in using your Tennis login details – Enter your usual Tennis login credentials – If your child’s Tennis ID isn’t linked yet, refer to the support article
4	Select your child’s profile – After logging in, you’ll be asked to choose a profile (e.g. you or your child) – Select your child’s profile to continue
5	Complete actions as your child – You can now enter competitions or tournaments, update details, and complete other actions on their behalf

Switching back to your profile

When you’re finished:

Sign out again
Log back in to your account
Select your own profile to manage your account

Why this matters

When you’re logged in as a parent, only your details are visible to competition systems.

Logging in as your child ensures:

Their profile appears in competition searches
Administrators can view their details
They can be entered into tournaments correctly

If you stay logged in as a parent, your child’s profile may not appear or be selectable.

Troubleshooting

Can’t find your child’s Tennis ID?

Check your registration emails
Or contact Tennis Australia support

Still can’t access your child’s profile?

Try resetting your password
If the issue continues, contact Customer Support for assistance

Venue Automation System (aka Book a Court) PIN Issue

UPDATE – If you are affected by this issue, please reset your modem using the system reset key, or turn off power to the system enclosure until the keypad(s) completely switch off (i.e. it doesn’t beep or light up).

If you’re still experiencing issues, please contact Tennis Australia Customer Support.

Please note it may take a few minutes for the booking data to download and for PIN access to begin working again.

There is currently a VAS (BAC) issue where booking PINs may not be providing access to the gate. This appears to have started on Thursday 5th of March and is limited to venues using a specific SIM connection.

The issue has been escalated with Complete Security Solutions (CSS), who have also raised it with their service provider for urgent investigation.

If you are affected by this issue, we recommend resetting the modem using the reset key on the system enclosure to see whether this resolves the problem. There is a small insert on the bottom of the system enclosure where the reset key can be inserted. The mechanism is spring-loaded, so the key will need to be twisted and held for approximately 5 seconds, which will power the router off and back on.

Alternatively, you can turn off the power to the enclosure for 3–4 hours. Once the keypads are completely off, the power can then be turned back on. This will complete a full system reset.

However, please note that this is not guaranteed to resolve the issue.

Note: the public/private site PIN should still give access to the gate if required.

We will provide a further update as soon as we receive more information

Memberships: How to import from an External File

Importing memberships from an external file can only be completed by your Club Development Officer (CDO) or Tennis Development Officer (TDO), so you’ll need to engage them to carry out the actual import.

Club admin steps:

Step 1:
Create each of your membership packages in Clubspark. (Refer to this support guide for instructions.)

Step 2:
Prepare a separate CSV file for each membership package (e.g. Adult, Family, Junior), and include all members you want to import.

For adult memberships, your CSV must include the following fields:

Contact ID (a unique number for each member, e.g. 1–100)
First Name
Last Name
Date of Birth
Email Address
Start Date
Expiry Date
Package Cost (e.g. $150)
Amount Paid (e.g. $150 if paid, $0 if unpaid)
Postcode

You can also include additional fields such as gender, address, phone number, or emergency contact details, but these are optional.

For junior packages, all the above fields are required with some extra information. Junior contacts don’t require an email address, but the parent/guardian must be added as their own contact. In addition, Primary Contact ID is required to link the child account to the parent/guardian.

For example:

Contact ID	Primary Contact ID	First Name	Last Name	Email Address
1	2	Junior A	Contact A
2	2	Parent A	Contact A	[email protected]
3	4	Junior B	Contact B
4	4	Parent B	Contact B	[email protected]

Family Membership Packages

Family packages require the same fields as adult membership packages, with the addition of Primary Contact ID. This works the same way as for junior packages but is used to link each family member to the primary contact for the family membership.

Once your files are ready, send them through to your CDO/TDO, who will complete the import for you.

Club Development Officer / Tennis Development Officer Instructions:

Step 1: Head to the Membership module on the left-hand side in your Admin area.

Step 2: From within the package, click on the ‘Import members‘ button.

Step 3: Download the import template as pictured below and enter all member details into the template. Once you have added in all the details to the file, select ‘Browse‘ to choose the file you wish to upload, and then click the blue ‘Import’ button.

Step 4: The file should be successfully imported, if the spreadsheet contains any errors you will receive a list of each error message containing what needs to be fixed or what is causing the error. Head back to the membership package where you should find your members now showing.

Step 5: With the members showing in the new package, you will be able to send emails to all adult members. Make sure you have selected ‘Main Contacts’ to send out payment requests and invites.

Support Guides

View the links below for step-by-step guides to support you with the new Single Sign In changes.

Ratings

Activating your Universal Tennis Rating (UTR)	UTR Sports and Tennis Australia have partnered together to make the Universal Tennis Rating (UTR rating) the official rating of tennis in Australia. To play competitive and recreational tennis in Australia, you’ll need to activate your UTR Rating from your Tennis profile.
Linking your existing UTR Account to your Tennis Australia Account	If you already have a pre-existing account with UTR Sports, you will need to log into your UTR Account and link your Tennis Australia account from there.

Child Profiles (Under 15)

Children under the age of 15 must have their Tennis Australia account linked to a parent or guardian. Before you can link your child’s account, you’ll need to first create your own account.

Create a new child account	Once your account is set up, you can create child account/s by linking them to your account.
Link an existing child account	If your child already has an existing Tennis ID, they can be added to a parent or guardian’s account. This includes children under 15 who previously had their own account but must now be linked to their parent/guardian’s account. You can also link an existing child’s account if they are linked to another Primary parent/guardian’s account, but you would also like to view the child’s account.
Switch to your child’s profile	If you’ve linked your child’s account to your parent or guardian profile, you may notice that you can’t enter competitions or complete certain actions on their behalf. To access these features, log in under your child’s profile.
Promoting a child account to an adult account	When a child linked to your account turns 15, you can “promote” their account to an adult account. This will allow your child to have their own sign-in details and manage their own account independently.
Unlinking a child account	If you no longer wish to have your child linked to your account, you can unlink them. Please note however, children under 15 must be linked to at least one parent/guardian’s account to remain active.
Deactivating a child account	If you would like to change the Primary Parent managing your child’s account, you will first need to deactivate your child’s account. You can also deactivate your child’s account if the account is no longer required. Please note: – To reactivate their account in the future, or link to an alternative Primary parent/guardian’s account, you’ll need to contact our Customer Support Team directly. – Once deactivated, your child’s profile will no longer be accessible through any Tennis Australia applications.

Profile Management

Forgot/Reset Password	If you are having trouble logging into your account, try resetting your password.
Updating Personal Details	You can update your name, address, phone number, email address and gender within your profile. Note, if you need to change your Date of Birth, Competition Category or Nationality, contact our Customer Support Team directly.
Updating Communication / Notification Settings	You can update your Communication / Notification Settings to increase or reduce the number of notifications you receive. Please note however, that certain notifications will be sent regardless of your settings. These include, but are not limited to, competition registrations and payment confirmations.
Deactivating your account	If you no longer wish to have a Tennis Profile, you can deactivate your account.

Troubleshooting

Unable to log in	There may be a number of reasons why you are unable to log in to your account: – If you had multiple accounts, you will only be able to log in with the primary email address. If you are unsure what your primary email address is, please contact our Customer Support Team. – If you previously had a child account, you now need to be linked to a parent or guardian’s account and will not be able to use your username to sign in. Your parent or guardian can link you to their profile when they register for an account. – You may have signed up with a social login (e.g., Google, Apple or Facebook). Try using these details instead of an email/password combination. – You may be entering an incorrect email address or password. Try resetting your password.
Unable to log in to my child’s account	– Ensure that your child’s account is correctly linked to your account following these instructions. – If you’re switching between accounts, you must fully sign out before logging in as someone else – this includes signing out from all tennis platforms that you have signed in to. Note: If you have multiple tabs open in the same browser, the system will still recognise you as the first user. To fix this, sign out completely, close all tabs and then log back in with the correct account. Alternatively, you can use a different browser for each person to avoid this happening (e.g., Chrome for you and Microsoft Edge for your child).
Unable to enter results via MatchCentre	If you haven’t been able to enter match results through Match Centre over the weekend, please reach out to your competition administrator or club contact and provide a copy of your physical scoresheet.
Unable to enter a Tournament	If you are having difficulties signing in and need to enter a tournament, please contact the Tournament Director to arrange a manual entry.
Missing data from Profile	Please contact our Customer Support Team via phone: 1800 752 983 or email: [email protected]
Account not loading as expected	When you use an Internet Browser, it saves some information from websites that you visit in its cache. Clearing the cache may fix certain problems, like loading or formatting issues on your Tennis profile.
Social logins (Google/Apple/Facebook)	If you sign up using your email and password and later try logging on using a social login (e.g., Google, Apple or Facebook), the system will create a second account. These two accounts will not automatically be linked. To avoid this, only use one sign-in method (either social login or email/password) and stick with it every time. If you have already created two accounts accidently, please contact our Customer Support team at [email protected] and provide the email addresses associated with both accounts and we can help merge them for you.
Incorrect date of birth	If you need to update your / your child’s date of birth, please contact our Customer Support Team via phone: 1800 752 983 or email: [email protected]

If you still require further assistance, please contact Customer Support on 1800 752 983 / email: [email protected]
