Your Tennis Journey Starts Here

Hi, I’m Rick Willsmore — Director of Tennis at Scarborough Tennis.

Since becoming Club Coach in 2007, I’ve had the privilege of helping thousands of people take their first steps — and next steps — on the tennis court. From toddlers picking up a racquet for the first time to teens reaching national tournament finals, we support players at every level.

Tennis shaped my own life, from backyard rallies on my cherry orchard in South Australia to competing in U.S. college tennis. Now, I lead a team of passionate coaches who believe tennis is more than just a game — it’s a journey that builds skill, confidence, and character.

Whether you play once a week or dream of competing, our programs are designed to grow with you. From Hot Shots to Junior Club Tennis to tournament pathways, we support your development every step of the way.

We consider it a tennis mentorship because we’re here to guide, encourage, and challenge you, no matter your age or stage.


"The coaches are engaging and have a great rapport with all the kids. oscar is always keen and motivated to get down to his lesson on time and on to the court."
