"Martin, I just wanted to say thank you for the outstanding training sessions with Evelyn and Teddy this summer. Your ability to push them outside of their comfort zones while continuing to build their confidence is something I really appreciate. I love how intentional you are about having them use both feet and not letting them take the easy way out. Even more than that, you stay patient and keep working with them until the movement becomes muscle memory instead of something they have to think through every time. Great coaches don’t just teach skills, they build confidence, discipline, and belief. You’re exceptional at your craft, and it’s obvious how much you care about helping kids reach their potential. Thanks for investing in Evelyn and Teddy and helping them become better players every session. We appreciate you!

My tennis journey began in high school and has never ended. My college courses were intense and became my focus away from sports. During summer breaks I took time to learn more sports including soccer and basketball while maintaining my tennis skills.

I’m Wayne Mendezona, Head Men’s Basketball Coach at Corban University and founder of Quick Handle Basketball. I’ve spent over 30+ years developing athletes and have trained more than 50,000 players—from youth to college and professional levels. I specialize in ball handling, scoring, and game performance—helping athletes build confidence, decision-making, and real in-game results. My training is not just drills—it’s about developing complete players who can perform under pressure, think the game, and separate themselves from the competition. I don’t train average. I train athletes who are serious about growth, discipline, and competing at a higher level. If that’s you, let’s get to work.

"My son said Coach Mendo was far and away the most effective coach he's ever worked with! His knowledge, tools, and willingness to share wisdom are incredible. I've never seen my son so impressed by a coach or heard him so enthusiastic about what he learned in a session. Very grateful!
