Tennis Scotland Awards 2025

4 MINUTE READ

Volunteers, venues, officials and players from across the country have been honoured at the Tennis Scotland Awards 2025.

The Scottish tennis and Padel tennis community came together for an evening of celebration in Stirling as a total of 22 awards were handed out to deserving winners chosen by a panel from an extremely high calibre of nominations.

The event was hosted by television presenter Rhona McLeod with winners receiving their awards from a host of high-profile guests, including Wimbledon mixed doubles semi-finalist and Tennis Scotland performance coach Jonny O’Mara and Scotland rugby legend Sean Lineen.

Grassroots heroes from across the country were honoured throughout the evening, while we also looked back at some of the most memorable moments of 2024, including the 100th anniversary of the women’s Scottish Cup, Sir Andy Murray's retirement and Gordon Reid’s success in all three Grand Slams and the Paralympics.

Each year the Tennis Scotland awards recognise the vital work of the many people dedicating their time and energy to developing tennis and Padel tennis around the country.

Tennis Scotland Chief Executive Blane Dodds said: “Congratulations to the winners at this year’s Tennis Scotland Awards, which was a fantastic celebration of people who make our sport so special.

“We have an immense appreciation for all the volunteers, coaches and officials who give their time to supporting players, events and venues across Scotland and it was inspirational to hear the incredible stories behind all the finalists.

“It was a pleasure to reward their amazing contributions to our great sport and I look forward to continuing to work with them to grow and develop tennis and Padel tennis in the future.”
