World Class Tennis Academy is one of Australia’s most respected tennis programs. With world-class instruction across all ages and levels, we deliver the kind of coaching that goes above and beyond. The measure of attention each student receives, the personalised approach to their development, and the supportive environment we foster make WCTA the most in-depth tennis program available in Melbourne.
our Coaching
Coaching is an art, and communication with each player is key. That is why we believe that a smaller, more focused program with a heavy emphasis on the individual is how to truly develop great tennis players.
Over the past 30 years, head coach Simon Batoni has dedicated his career to changing lives through the development of tennis players on all levels. It is a long-term process. It takes hard work, dedication, and the right environment to truly unlock your potential. At WCTA, we provide all three, and are committed to developing you as a person, athlete and player.

Our Mission.
to help players reach the top of their game… We teach our students how to play the game by providing a balanced program with focus on the technical, tactical, mental and physical needs of each player.
we strive to create a culture based on competitive spirit, sportsmanship and Teamwork in a positive peer group environment.
we aim on developing as both players and people by teaching life skills and values.
Coaching Philosophy
Passion for the game is at the core of everything our coaches do. From how we structure a session to how we communicate with each individual, every decision we make is guided by one clear priority: the development of the player.
To achieve this, every WCTA coach is trained under the same system by the head coach. This shared philosophy and common coaching language creates a seamless experience for the player, one that is consistent, structured, and built around their individual growth. The result is a program that doesn’t rely on any single coach, but on an organised team working toward the same goal.
This synergy between coach and player is what sets WCTA apart and it’s what turns good players into great ones.
