Bowral Tennis Club Incorporated Upgrade of Bowral Tennis Club Lighting The project involves installation of new light poles, modern LED lighting and control systems for BTC’s 4 hard courts, bringing them up to AS2560.2.1 standard for night play. BTC’s 8 courts are the only public courts in Bowral. Many residents can only utilise them at night, but the poor lighting makes play difficult and potentially dangerous.

Integration with the automated booking/lighting system will make all courts, suitably illuminated, readily available 24/7.

Wingecarribee Council is about to undertake major renovations of surfaces, making this an ideal opportunity to upgrade the lighting without risking damage to the playing surfaces.
