Coach, Player and Parent Testimonials

Super 10s

“I just wanted to say a quick thank you to you and your staff for putting on a great day for the children. My son George not only enjoyed the day, he was also provided with a great opportunity to see some of his peers and the commitment it takes to excel in one’s sport.

I wish you every success with the program and hopefully George will attend the next Super 10s in Term 4, 2012.”

“I think that the sportsmanship displayed by all players has been noticeably better than often observed at tournaments. I think this is due to the structure. So well done. He has definitely become more positive, enthusiastic and generally happier about his tennis as a consequence of being in Super 10s. He has also been receptive to taking on suggestions about match play which have improved his game. Last week I observed the camaraderie between players on adjacent courts as they cheered on their team. From my perspective it has been a very positive experience. Thank you to you and all the coaches who have given up their time to be involved.”

Coach

“Great to have a team atmosphere. I have seen some of my super ten team members at tournaments after the conclusion of super 10s and it has been good for myself to be able to say g’day to them and I think good for them to know a coach there to take an interest particularly if their private coach is not at that tournament.”

“I loved the team concept that they play as a team and support one another”

National Talent Development Camp

“We would like to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you to Tennis Australia for involving Dane in the tennis camp to AIS Canberra in June 2011. This was a wonderful experience for him, one that he is still talking about today.  It was fantastic for him to meet other young up and coming players from around the country and to spend time away with them and his coach.  He came home so excited, with so much positive feedback that we would not hesitate to send him away again if he is given the opportunity. We think these types of camps are very important in keeping these young players focused and enthusiastic. This camp in particular was very worthwhile and a valuable experience.”

“The National Talent Development Camp-AIS gave an in depth analysis of Sanyukta’s tennis game. This was a very motivating and inspiring event. Sanyukta met new fellow tennis players and made friendships with most of them. Recently in the National grasscourt championship she renewed her friendship with them and looking forward to meet them in future tournaments.

An excellent camp full of fun and tennis.
Wishing everyone all the best for 2012 camp.”

“Just writing to say a sincere thank you for providing Joshua with the wonderful opportunity in being a part of the National Talent Development Camp in Canberra.

He had an amazing time and learnt a great deal about the game of tennis, as well as making some fabulous friends in the process. I would like to thank all the coaches and yourself for your tireless efforts and hard work over the last four days, as I am sure this commitment meant being away from your families. Joshua will always remember this fantastic opportunity – thanks again.”

Talent Development Camps

“Just wanted to express our great appreciation for the tennis development weekend in Shepparton. Thank you and Tennis Victoria for giving our regional kids such a wonderful opportunity. It was a very encouraging and informative weekend for parents and a fantastic coaching experience for the kids. Thank you so much for your efforts, it was really nice to be acknowledged and listened to as regional parents of tennis children.
My son benefited a lot from the different coaches. He learned lots of new skills and much more. I can’t speak for the coaches, but they also seemed to be getting a lot out of the weekend and seemed to enjoy being able to get together with the other coaches.”

Parent

“I just wanted to take the opportunity to thank you and the other coaches personally for the Talent camp run this weekend at Shepparton Lawn Tennis.

My son Sean had a fantastic two days and was very inspired. He is planning to ramp up his training schedule and was already driving us crazy with hitting the ball against the garage wall every night. I am sure his tennis improved just by being involved and your enthusiasm was very much appreciated.

Thanks again, hopefully we will get to meet you again in the future.”
