Testimonials
Feedback from our inaugural coaching clinic.
What did you enjoy most from the sessions?
Practising what Paul suggested with others.
I enjoyed learning the basic and fundamentals, and how to, this has improved my game.
To be honest, the entire clinic was enjoyable from start to finish. Paul was a brilliant coach throughout the entire program. He was approachable, informative and made the practical exercises fun to learn. It was nice to see others within the Satellite club wanting to up-skill their knowledge and performance as well.
What have you been able to incorporate from the sessions when playing socially?
Quality of serves and return of serves have improved a lot for me.
I noticed the major improvements are taking time to serve, return of serve and double defences.
I’ve been able to incorporate a variety of different skill sets from the sessions that I attended. Drives, backhands, serves and drops would have to be the main ones.
Short serves.
