My name is Shane Scrutton and I've got 30 years experience helping tennis players of every age and ability. And as the Head Coach of Yarra Tennis Coaching, my mission is to improve your game.

Yarra Tennis Testimonials

"What a great program the Eaglemont Tennis Club delivered us this year. We have been working with them for over ten years and they continue to improve and progress their programs they run for us. Shane who runs our program as well as his other coaches have all done a magic job!"

"Shane is, in my opinion, a better tennis coach than anyone else that I’ve met."

"Shane Scrutton is a team mate, coach and mentor.  He assists me in technique, tactical knowledge and fuels my love of the game.  I would not be the tennis player and person I am today without the on-going support of Coach Scrutton."
