Dellavedova Tennis

HISTORY

From Humble Beginnings to a Community Pillar

Dellavedova Tennis has deep roots in the local tennis community, with a proud coaching legacy that spans over four decades.

The journey began in 1980, when Peter Dellavedova established Peter Dellavedova Tennis Coaching. From the outset, Peter built his coaching philosophy around respect, patience, and quality instruction — values that quickly earned him a loyal base of players and families throughout the region.

Peter's coaching style was known for its personal touch. Whether working with complete beginners or competition-level juniors, he brought the same level of care, energy, and professionalism to every lesson. Over time, his name became synonymous with grassroots tennis development and positive coaching culture.

A New Generation, Same Core Values

As the years have gone by, the next generation of the Dellavedova family has taken up the reins — with a renewed energy and a clear vision for the future of the business. The name has evolved to Dellavedova Tennis, a modern brand built on the strong foundation laid by Peter.

Today, Dellavedova Tennis proudly operates out of Wonga Park Tennis Club, continuing the legacy of personalised coaching, community connection, and exceptional service — while expanding to include:

• 🎾 Private and semi-private coaching
• 👫 Junior group programs and holiday clinics
• 💪 High Performance Academy for aspiring professionals
• 💡 Cardio Tennis and adult programs
• 🛠️ Professional racquet restringing services

Through it all, the mission remains unchanged: to provide premium coaching and support at an affordable price, with a warm, respectful approach that treats every player as an individual.

Looking Ahead

What started as one man and a few courts has grown into a thriving, multi-faceted coaching business — but we’ve never lost sight of what matters most: genuine care, quality coaching, and community spirit.

We are proud of where we’ve come from and excited about where we’re going.

Dellavedova Tennis – Built on Experience. Driven by Passion.

PHILOSOPHY

At Dellavedova Tennis, we believe that every player — regardless of age, ability, or background — deserves access to high-quality coaching in a supportive and respectful environment.

Our philosophy is built on three core pillars:

1. Excellence Without the Price Tag

We are committed to delivering premium-level coaching that doesn’t come with an elitist cost. From the technical foundations to tactical awareness and mental toughness, we teach with the same attention to detail found at the highest levels of the sport — making it accessible to everyone.

2. Respect and Warmth in Every Interaction

We treat every student, parent, and club member with genuine warmth and respect. Our coaches listen, encourage, and adapt to the individual. Whether you're a first-time player or an aspiring pro, you’ll find a place where you're valued, supported, and understood.

3. Growth On and Off the Court

Tennis is more than just a game — it’s a tool for personal growth. We foster resilience, sportsmanship, and confidence through our lessons, helping players not just improve their game, but also develop life skills that extend beyond the court.

We are proud to be a part of the local community and grateful for the opportunity to help players of all ages discover the joy of tennis through a high-quality, affordable, and people-first approach.
