Matthew Griffiths brings a wealth of experience and a passion for tennis to his coaching career. Growing up in Cardiff, Wales, Matthew excelled as a junior player and earned the opportunity to compete at the University of Wisconsin in the United States. After transitioning from player to coach, he served as an assistant coach for both the men's and women's teams at the University of Wisconsin. Matthew then advanced to a junior director role at Four Lakes Athletic Club in Wisconsin, where he spent three successful years. Returning to the UK, he became the Director of Tennis at Will to Win in London, the country's leading provider of park-based tennis.
