Customer Testimonials
I’ve known Charlie as a tennis coach for about 4-5yrs. He has been amazing on my tennis training. I’ve certainly progressed with my tennis from a beginner to a League C player in both doubles & singles. Not only does he teach good skills & use great drills he also makes it fun with lots of laughs. I’m looking forward to still progressing my tennis with Charlie.
ABI
Charlie has been my coach for a few months now and I have enjoyed it tremendously. His knowledge of tennis technique, mindset and drills is fantastic. He has introduced a few aspects into my game (kick serve and backhand slice) that have brought about significant differences in my game. Additionally, I am a leftie and working with a left-handed coach has been a game-changer for me. I would gladly recommend Charlie's services to anyone who is looking to elevate their game.
Charlie has been my coach for some time now. I take private lessons and group classes. I feel my game and confidence in tennis has improved a lot under his guidance. He is very patient and has a good variety of coaching styles so his lessons are always great fun. I always look forward to them!
SOPHIE
SID
Charlie has coached me for 5 years. His enthusiasm and love of tennis are contagious. I am a much stronger player thanks to Charlie.
LOUISE
My son loves his lessons with Coach Charlie because they always do something fun whilst learning new techniques. He has been a wonderful and positive coach for my son. He's been able to explain shots and tactics in a 'kid friendly' way and my son feels like he's improving each week!
I've had Charlie as my coach for several years now. My over all game has really improved. He has helped my shots improve but also how I play/my understanding of strategy has come on a lot.
