The TopTenn Tennis Academy has been conducting lessons and coaching teams at Scotch College for almost 15 years. The teams have been performing consistently well winning many APS premierships across all year levels. The elusive one remains a First VIII premiership. Our home grown talent has worked extremely hard over the past few years only to narrowly miss going all the way.

Professional Coaching.

 


Please see Sally or Leslie in the Junior School office for all of the information on the multitude of programmes and opportunities for boys to receive coaching before and after school, or at our popular lunchtime sessions.

Preppies and Year Ones look out for our exciting "Aussie Mozzie" tennis.


Squads

Toptenn conducts a series of development squads for all levels throughout the school. These squads are programmed to accelerate each boy's progress and enable the best players from each level to compete and train with the best players from other year levels.

Recently Hendrik Gutwirth, an exercise physiologist, has been assessing the fitness levels and designing customised summer fitness programmes for each player in the Firsts and Senior Development Squad.
