From early recognition as acknowledge leader of the Auckland Region's 1900's tennis culture, the Northcote Lawn Tennis club has colourful history spanning four successive sites.
Based initially on land owned by Hancocks Breweries on Northcote's Point's Princess Street, then titled Birkenhead and Northcote Tennis Club. Shortly afterwards the club moved close by to a new property at the rear of Little Shoal Bay alongside the Northcote Bowling club.
