A BIT ABOUT ME

Hello, good morning, afternoon, good evening.

I'm Sam - LTA level 3 tennis coach - 10years experience

I started coaching in 2014 (17 years young), with the intent to pursue tennis coaching temporarily while thinking about what to do with myself.
I managed to get hooked with this coaching stuff very quickly. Eventually, I asked my head coach about being more involved in the coaching and the other venues.
So I started to travel in & around Leeds at the multiple venues, earning my (American) PTR level 2 qualification in 2016, but this isn't relevant in the UK. I eventually qualified for my LTA level 1 & 2 during 2018.

COVID hit and everything went on pause.
But me being me, I had a business idea!
Virtual tennis coaching.
So for several months throughout the lockdowns of 2020/21 I introduced 'Tennis 2 zoom'. Creating this fantastic business opportunity & weekly event. Everyone could join in at the safety of their home, becoming very popular from the first session.

I ran these sessions 3/4 times a week, between 8-20 players involved at home.

Eventually, all the coaching got back to normal-ish with limitations.
Unfortunately, 'Tennis 2 zoom' couldn't sustain its popularity after the final lockdown - early 2021.


Long story short
I wanted to be selfish, just once. So I brought my coaching back to Leeds and came back to the local tennis community, restarting @ John Charles centre for sport, early 2022.
A year later, I'm a trained Disability coach, Wheel chair coach, I run my own coaching program @ Thornhill Tennis club & my LTA Level 3 qualification just months after.

Bringing you to here and now to my website

Speak to you you all soon

Your coach,

Sam
