Community Benefit Fund.<\/p>\n<p>Two of the three Council-owned courts in South Street have been recovered with artificial grass.<\/p>\n<p>The funding application, by the Wondai and District Tennis Association, was made on behalf of its four member clubs: Wondai, Tingoora, Chelmsford and Mondure.<\/p>\n<p>The refurbished courts were officially opened on Saturday morning by Cr Scott Henschen at a small ceremony attended by members of the four clubs.<\/p>\n<p>Association treasurer Margaret Burrows said sand had been sprinkled on top of the artificial surface which will work in and create a &#8220;good bounce&#8221; for the players.<\/p>\n<p>She said the courts can be hired by members of the public for a small fee.<\/p>\n<p>The Association hosts social tennis games every Monday night from 7:00pm, alternating between the four member clubs.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_329592\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-329592\" style=\"width: 740px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a
