Greg’s journey as a tennis player went from playing with friends at his local club, to becoming the number four ranked junior player in the world, winning a Commonwealth Games Silver Medal for Australia, and reaching 179 in the world in singles on the ATP Tour during a 12 year professional career.
Since retiring as a player, he has been fortunate to work with some of the best Junior and professional players in the world, including four of the top 20 ITF Junior Boys (2022), and Grand Slam Champions Venus Williams (2019) and Caroline Wozniacki (during her Australian Open Women’s Singles Title in 2018, and again in 2020).
Greg has also worked with numerous aspiring juniors across Victoria, as well as both junior and adult players at all stages of their tennis journey.

I have started coaching with Greg a couple of weeks ago. During trainings, Greg brings his expertise he gathered on the Tour to structure sessions around technical and tactical focus points. Such a privilege to be coached by a former ATP player who can lift up your game with small details very quickly. I will definitely recommend working with Greg if you want to bring your tennis game to the next level.
Victory Park tennis has been amazing for my kids and myself!
My daughter has had the opportunity to play at the Australian open through Greg and Victory Park tennis. This has made her passion for tennis even stronger than it already was! How many people get an opportunity to showcase their tennis skills at a grand slam tennis tournament?
My son started whilst at 4 year old kinder and is hooked (he’s now in Prep). All the coaches have made learning fun and exciting that I find my kids hanging out for the weekly tennis coaching session.I started cardio tennis knowing I hadn’t played in over 15 years. Greg makes sure we get some technique tips whilst getting a great cardio workout! It’s an added bonus that there’s a real social side to the workout with like minded and skilled people in the group.
Thanks Greg and the Victory Park tennis group! You’ve won my family over with tennis
My son Jason, age 12 years attends tennis coaching at Victory Tennis Academy, coached by director Greg Jones. Jason has attended regular squad and private tennis lessons with Greg. We have found Greg to be extremely professional, knowledgeable and passionate in the manner which he goes about coaching. Greg coaches the kids using the latest techniques, his dedication, enthusiasm, effort and time is testament to the kids results on match day. Greg’s lessons are of the highest intensity but at the same time the players are enjoying their time on the court. Greg’s self-motivation while coaching flows over onto the kids and he has built awesome bonds with them. In addition Greg is always very approachable and willing to engage in a conversation. Greg always says, “ if you train hard, you’ll play hard”.
We have seen the growth, development and the confidence of Jason since been coached by Greg and his team. This becomes very clear when one see’s the kids attitude on the court. He coaches them to be the best sportsmen and women, and at the same time to play hard, fight for every point, but most importantly enjoy playing tennis.
It is wonderful to see Greg sharing his success on the court, his talent, skills and expertise in the game of tennis with the children.
