I always share my enthusaism for the sport with any of my clients giving them the motivation to improve.Member Testimonial
Roy's passion for tennis is clear to see. It rubs off on me everytime we go on court. As a really experienced and top quality player, Roy has given me some great advice and improved my matchplay no end. The simple tactical things have paid off for me rather than completely starting again with my technique. He certainly knew how to progress my game and got as much of a buzz from seeing the results as I did. Thanks Roy!
