Our Constitution stipulates life membership can only be confirmed at the Tennis Central Region AGM therefore nominations recevied at least 21 days prior to each Annual General Meeting will be considered, nominations received after this date will be held over to the following year.

Wellington Tennis Incorporated

Constitution Wellington Tennis Inc

Wellington Tennis Incorporated (WTI) was formed in 1908 for the purpose of acting as a provincial body for the administration and development of tennis in the Wellington province. As part of the reorganisation of the administration of tennis in New Zealand in 2007, Tennis Central Region Incorporated (TCRI) was formed to administer and develop tennis in the Central Region, including the Wellington province. As a result, many of the functions previously performed by WTI were passed to TCRI. WTI remains in operation for one specific task and that is as the owner of the Renouf Tennis Centre, located on Brooklyn Road in Wellington. WTI also holds a reserve lease from Wellington City Council on the land at Central Park. WTI's members are the 16 Wellington tennis clubs.
