Dear Members,
After an extensive search the St. Anthony’s Tennis Club Committee, is extremely excited to announce the appointment of Ben Wood as the next Club Professional at St. Anthony’s Tennis Club.
Ben is a Tennis Australia, Club Professional Qualified coach, who comes to us with extensive experience with all ages and levels of coaching.
He has been a Tennis Coaches Association of Victoria Advanced Junior Program Coach, a Tennis Victoria Talent Identification Coach, a senior coach at Tennis World Albert Park and a Junior High Performance Coach at Melbourne Park, where he trained junior ranked players 12-16 years of age. He has 20+ years of experience in developing hot shots, club level and elite level players, as well as running group, cardio and private lessons for all ages and levels.
Ben has accepted a long term contract with the club to build our junior programs, with the aim to be entering competitive teams on a weekend and to one day bolster the senior sides at the club. Ben is also keen to build up our adult programs particularly cardio sessions and women in tennis programs.
Ben will be available to commence coaching at St. Anthony’s starting on Monday the 19th of September and commence after school coaching from the beginning of Term 4 on Monday the 3rd of October.
