The 2017 Victorian Sport Awards are set to be announced on Wednesday 14 March with a number of tennis individuals named as finalists.

Of the 19 awards to be presented on the night, nine of them will have a Victorian tennis identity in contention.

The list of tennis finalists are below:

• Victorian Community Coach of the Year (Vicky Lee)
• Sports Administrator of the Year (Belinda Kleverlaan)
• Victorian Community Sporting Club of the Year (Boroondara Tennis Centre)
• Victorian Masters Sport Award (Glenn Busby)

• Victorian Young Athlete of the Year (Destanee Aiava)
• Victorian Male Athlete of the Year (John Peers)
• Victorian Sport Development Initiative of the Year (Book a Court)

With many of the finalists awarded Victorian Tennis Awards last year, this proves what a sensational 12 months these individuals have had.

We would like to congratulate all of the finalists and wish them the very best for the night.
