Job description

It's a great time to join Tennis Scotland - our sport is thriving with record club membership and investment in programmes, facilities and competitions.

Our new Wheelchair Tennis Pathway Coach/Manager will play a key role in increasing the strength and depth of the player pool of people with a disability, by driving forward participation and performance activities within Scotland.
