PASSION KNOWLEDGE INTEGRITY AHTennis Est 2001
Introduction
I have been coaching tennis for over 22 years and am a certified professional Tennis Coach.
I specialize in getting tennis players to where they want to be. If that's an adult social player who wants to raise their level so they can gain entry into a tennis club, somebody who has never played before and wants to get started or a 3-year-old getting the racket in the hand for the first time!
I have a history of working with performance juniors regional and international players and can talk through parents a coaching plan and what the goals are with the player. I am currently coaching regional and national Juniors and have forwarded on many players onto the American university Scholarship system including the Canadian Junior no.2 who I was training with the focus of reaching the Canadian Olympic tennis team.
Group lessons and Tennis Junior Camps can be booked online through this site ClubSpark.
