The Memorial Drive Tennis Centre project by SA Construct was the stand out project across all trade contractor entries this year.

The facade design, with its compound curvatures and prefabrication mimicking airplane wing design, highlights SA Construct’s innovation in overcoming manufacturing challenges. SA Construct’s meticulous approach to the design, manufacturing, and installation process on this project enabled them to collaborate successfully with all stakeholders, resulting in a successful project outcome. A stand-out winner of Specialist Contractor of the Year 2023.
