Background
Tedesco was born in the northern Sydney suburb of Ryde, New South Wales, Australia.
Tedesco is of Italian descent. He was raised on a hundred hectare property in Menangle in Sydney's south west, complete with his own football field with goal posts. Tedesco played his junior football with the Camden Rams. His father said of his early years, "James couldn't even make the junior rep squad for Wests when he was 14, and from then on he's always sort of scraped in. But once he's made those teams, he's gone on to finish as the best player."
Tedesco was a student of St Gregory's College, Campbelltown, and was in year 7 when Chris Lawrence was studying year 12, at which point Lawrence had already debuted 1st Grade for their local NRL team Wests Tigers, whom Tedesco would go on to debut for.
