Born in Sydney, Australia in 1938, Ken Hiscoe is one the stalwarts of Australian squash. His performances and efforts through the sixties and seventies assisted in forming the sound foundation for Australian squash that we have today and for the athletes that followed. Hiscoe never played in a losing NSW or Australian team from 1960 to 1978. Also, he mentored a young Geoff Hunt on his first tour to England.  After retiring, Hiscoe continued in the Masters where he won the British Open Masters Championship from 1980 to 1993 and was the World Masters Champion for the 45-year age group in 1983.
