Peanut Tennis lists Australian tennis courts and sanctioned tournaments in one place, for players hunting a nearby court or an event calendar.
Courts nearby, then a link out to book
The homepage court search covers park courts, clubs and tennis centres, nearest first, with lights, surface and how to get on court. Free park courts and hit-up walls are included. Dedicated free-court pages call out Melbourne and Sydney. On the day this was written the homepage printed 4,068 venues and 1,259 free park courts, plus 140 free courts in Melbourne and 172 in Sydney in the footer.
About makes the booking path explicit: Peanut filters by surface, lights or indoor, then sends you to the venue's own booking page. Free courts are marked so you can turn up. The marketing line "Find a court. Book it. Play." sits on the Open Graph card and the about page, but the booking itself is not completed inside Peanut. The FAQ separately pegs outdoor hire at about $15 to $35 an hour at many council or club venues, more with lights or at peak times, and says indoor centres cost more and book out in winter. This page was not taken through a search, a booking link or a tournament entry.
The image on this page is Peanut's own Open Graph card: the peanut mascot with a lime headband, the three lines "Find a court. Book it. Play.," and "Free, Australia-wide." It is not a live map screenshot from this visit.
The footer also links racquet restringing. Privacy says stringer listings show business details such as name, suburb, phone, WhatsApp, website and prices after a check, and that Call or WhatsApp taps are counted against the stringer and tournament without storing the player's identity.
Sanctioned tournaments, and who entered
Tournament search covers Tennis Australia sanctioned events by state, age group, ball colour, date and school holidays. After entries close, the site says you can see who entered, ranked by UTR. The homepage tournament strip on that day showed 130 coming up, with state counts ACT 3, NSW 24, QLD 25, SA 14, TAS 3, VIC 55 and WA 6. Guides cover UTR, tiers, ball colours and a first tournament; rules pages rewrite association by-laws in plain English. The FAQ also describes NUTR, which it calls Peanut's own rating.

The privacy page, last updated 6 November 2026, names Vercel Analytics and Microsoft Clarity for usage, OpenStreetMap Nominatim for suburb lookup, and Google Maps photos on some tournament pages. Court fixes and reviews keep what you wrote, a first name on reviews, and an optional email that is never shown. Contact and corrections go to [email protected]. About says Peanut was built by a tennis parent and junior coordinator, that the name comes from the peanut gallery, and that it is independent and not affiliated with Tennis Australia. The footer links Terms of Service; that path returned not found when checked.
