“I began lessons with Duncan because as someone who came to tennis relatively late in life, but who plays doubles in club and league matches, I wanted to improve my range of shots including my forehand, backhand, volleying and serve. I also wanted to further improve my understanding of positioning during rallies and develop an effective game plan. 

I can honestly say it was the right decision as all aspects of my game have improved, especially my back hand which was definitely a weak point for me. Duncan has also worked on improving the execution/technique of my shots in order to reduce the stress on my joints; this means that tennis elbow is no longer an issue.

My advice to anyone contemplating taking up lessons with Duncan is: Go for it! Duncan is a very patient, knowledgeable and effective coach who tailors the individual’s needs to his approach to their coaching.

Above all, my lessons have shown me that, whilst I wish I’d taken up tennis at a much younger age, you’re never too old to learn and to improve your game. And it’s lots of fun too!”
