Whether it was a training session, a competition or a family outing – Dossetor has plenty of great memories at the Griffith Tennis Club.

Now – as he returns to his home club as head coach – Dossetor wants to provide the current crop of players coming through the Griffith ranks with the same experience.

“I want to help out the local juniors,” Dossetor said.

“This is where I’m from so it’s a bit of a pride thing as well.”

Dossetor will use his firsthand experience – having played college tennis in the US as well as toured on the ATP circuit – to help the budding tennis stars.

“There’s some talent coming through and hopefully that’s where I can help out,” he said.

“Help get them to that level of training and expertise for them to do whatever they want to do.

“Whether its college, ATP [Association of Tennis Professionals] or WTA [Women's Tennis Association]. Whatever it is, I’ll help them with that.”

The multiple MIA Open winner has worked as a coach at Brisbane Grammar School for the past five years.

A change in scenery prompted Dossetor’s move back to his hometown.

“It was just to be closer to family,” Dossetor said.

“I have nieces and nephews down here that I didn’t get to see that much.”

Dossetor hopes to draw in as many people to the club as he can.

“[We’ll] get some squads going and private lessons, all that sort of stuff,” Dossetor said.

“I remember as a junior, the club was booming with people and families and lots of stuff on the weekend.

“I’m definitely hoping to get it back to that sort of status.

“And just trying to get as many people as possible interested in the game.”

The Griffith Tennis Club will hold an open day on Saturday, January 28.

It will all start at 5pm with free court access and a barbecue running. For more information, head to the Griffith Tennis Club’s Facebook page or its website www.griffithtennisclub.com.au.
