My Tennis Background:
I have been playing tennis for over 45 years. During my policing career I played for the West Yorkshire Police at regional and national levels and still represent Great Britain at the World Police & Fire Games around the world, winning gold medals in both singles and doubles. I have played for Yorkshire as a veteran, and have captained and played for Ilkley in the Leeds League 1st Team, Yorkshire League 1st Team and National League 1st Team. I have won the Over 45 singles at the Club Championships five times, and the doubles seven times. I have been a Club Coach at Ilkley for twelve years.
My Role at ILTSC:
I am a Club Coach, having coached all stages from Mini Red to Full Ball. I also provide individual lessons for children and adults.
My Coaching Philosophy:
That sounds a bit pretentious. My style and strengths? Same goes for that. I do know how to play tennis, and I know how to make others play better. I love tennis. I love watching it, playing it and coaching it. Enthusiasm is my biggest strength. So, there you go; one out of three isn’t bad.
