Martyna Ciubatiuk
I have played tennis since I was 7 years old. I'm proud to have represented Hampshire from orange ball to 18 & under and managing to reach No 1 in the county - I still love playing regularly. Working in tennis has allowed me to pass on my passion and skills to others. Whether I'm on or off court I alway enjoy keeping active.

If you ever need a recommendation, just check in with Fraser the Film Buff. Call Fraser on 07828 631155 for individual lessons.

Every year, he and Fraser enjoy a special holiday together, just to talk drills over sundowners - that's commitment to the cause. Call David on 07502 086567 for individual lessons.
Antonio Mironovic
Hi I’m Antonio, I am 20 years old, I was born in Portugal. I can speak Portuguese & English fluently. I also have a good understanding of Croatian. I started playing tennis at the age of 15 and have aspired to be a tennis coach since. My passion for coaching started through being helped as a player and then fiding real pleasure from helping others. I am constantly looking to understand how to improve the performance of others as well as myself. My goal is to continually develop my skills whilst motivating and developing a wide range of individuals helping them to become the best version of themselves

When he's not binge-eating pizza and binge-watching Netflix, Gary can be found cheering at his daughter's equestrian events and then mucking out afterwards, where he cheers a little bit less. Call Gary on 07901 640434 for individual lessons. 

Become a Premier Tennis coach

We employ coaches at different levels to run and support a wide variety of programmes. Currently, there are opportunities to coach on our club, school, park and holiday club programmes, as well as individual private lessons which we are regularly asked about.

All Premier Tennis coaches are required to be DBS checked and have the relevant first aid qualification; they must also successfully demonstrate their coaching ability and attend training sessions with our coaching team as required. Get in touch with us to find out more.

What do Premier Tennis coaches receive?

Premier Tennis coaches are rewarded well, and in return, we expect a high degree of professionalism – which is nothing less than our customers demand or deserve.

We have excellent opportunities for ongoing coach education with our in-house partner Growing the Game. This enables us to create bespoke coaching courses for achieving Level 1 and 2 or above, often at a discount, with like-minded and motivated coaches.

You will also benefit from our own additional training, as we are committed to ensuring all our coaches are fully up to speed on age-appropriate drills and teaching techniques, as well as customer service expectations.

Further off-court support is available to our in-house coaches and local partners in the form of mentoring, marketing, customer service and administration, finance and legal advice.
