About Me :

I played my Junior tennis at Rastrick (over 20 years ago!) and fell in love with the sport and made friendships that last a lifetime. I competed in local club leagues and local tournaments. I used to help my old coach deliver Mini Tennis sessions where I got my first taste of coaching.

I started my coaching career at Huddersfield Tennis Club in 2005 and worked there for nearly 10 years before leaving to start my own schools coaching programme and parent and toddler programme (Teenie Tennis Kids Ltd). I worked for a year at Thongsbridge Tennis Club from 2014/15 and I am currently the club coach at Gregory Fields Tennis Club in Highburton. 

I am looking forward to introducing lots of children to tennis in Calderdale and hope to develop friendly matchplay opportunities for children and adults of all abilities.
