I find it hard to play tennis with Asher when he calls my serves out when they are clearly in. He's an impressive coach, I just feel he should get his eye sight checked now he's turning 40 Yrs old

Coach Rayner is a fantastic coach, he does great drills, footwork and match play and has progressed my 10 year old twin daughters extremely well over the last 6 months. They love their group lessons with him! Thank you!

Asher is a fantastic coach who can identify quickly small but extremely effective changes to your technique. He is also kind, fun and encouraging. Highly recommend.
- Vera·
Wahib is a great coach. He sees a lot of things you do and don’t do. He looks at you 1 minute and tells you: „I give you a shot and you cannot return it, because that is your weakness…“ he hits, you miss and the shot is not a bomb. It is just your weakness.
He knows how to help you to improve. His drills are always fun and tough. I learn a lot with him and really enjoy the sessions!!! - Stella SC·
Coach Rayner is an excellent coach, my game hasn’t improved considerably since working with him. He is technical, makes me work hard and tailors the lessons as needed to progress.

Asher is a tremendous coach for our son who has progressed quickly after starting lessons 6 months ago
