Fueled by a lifelong love for tennis, I bring over 30 years of experience, including my time as a professional athlete, to the court. I am passionate about developing well rounded athletes with technical skills, tactical deftness, and proper mental approach to the sport. I teach all levels with a simplified, holistic approach allowing for fast improvement to ensure a positive and rewarding experience for every student.
"Scott is a remarkable coach. As a high level player, Iβve found it very difficult to find a coach who truly understands the interplay of technique and tactics, and clearly communicate it the way Scott does. Additionally, he offers tremendous insight on the mental side of the game, which has helped me a great deal. I highly recommend!
I've been playing tennis for 14+ years and coaching for about 2 years. I started my coaching career at the same tennis center I've played at for 10 years. At first, I coached younger players, ages 5-10, but as I progressed I moved on to older, more advanced athletes who needed more refined strategic and technical input. For 2 years my player evaluation and feedback skills have developed into a strong background.

Players 3.0 to 4.0. We will adapt you to warm-up drills similar to what you would see in all colleges. This will allow us to see how comfortable you are on court. And based on what I see in your on-court abilities will determine how fast we move you into tiebreaks and/or sets. We'll discuss what things you would like to improve on and work those into what I call micro drills.

In the first lesson, I evaluate the player's technique, footwork, and overall consistency through rally-based drills. I also ask about their goals and experience to tailor the training plan.

A racket, comfy outfit and some "tennis" shoes made for tennis! (Not running, walking, hiking, crosstraining shoes, etc.) However, basketball shoes will suffice too. Please bring your OWN RACKET which you can purchase on Amazon or at BIG 5 or DICK'S SPORTING GOODS.
