I am an experienced coach who has worked in a wide range of environments as both a coach and a teacher. I began coaching 7 years ago, and have since taught PE and Sports Coaching in primary schools, colleges as well as lecturing in Universities. I am extremely passionate about tennis, and firmly believe anyone can play if they really want to. I love working with players of all abilities, from beginners to advanced level. I am also the Managing Director and Head Coach at Sphairistrike Tennis.

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.
