I am Head Coach at Bishopbriggs and Lenzie LTCs. Previously, I was Assistant Head Coach at Milngavie, Westerton and Thorn Park LTCs, and have worked at DL West End. For me tennis should always be fun regardless of age or stage. I try to connect with players and help them find more enjoyment in the game. For those who are more competitive I am keen to push and challenge them so they can reach their potential. james@lenzietennis.org.uk or james@bishopbriggstc.com

Coach Accreditation is the LTA’s professional membership scheme for coaches. Being accredited ensures that a coach is qualified, insured and meets safe-to-practice standards, such as first aid and safeguarding training. An Accredited+ coach also commits to a minimum of 15 hours of professional development training each year.
Qualifications range from 1 to 5 and indicate the level of formally-assessed training a coach has completed. Coaches begin the LTA Qualification pathway at LTA Assistant (Level 1) and are able to train up to Master Coach (Level 5), the highest available LTA qualification. When choosing a coach we recommend taking into account qualifications, experience and ongoing CPD training, which can be seen in their 'Recently completed training courses' tab.
All coaches displayed on this tool are committed to delivering tennis to people of all backgrounds including disability, faith, gender identity, race, sex and sexual orientation.
