This week is one of the rare occasions that we have had the opportunity to meet our guest in person. Although we recorded the episode virtually, we met up with Merlin Van De Braam a few weeks ago in Dublin to talk all things tennis 🎾
Merlin is the Head of Coach Development & Support at the LTA.
We talk:
- Early tennis days
- Working with the ITF
- Joining the LTA
- Female coaches
- Coaching your own child
- Psychology in Tennis
This episode is great for any coaches out there, but also for any tennis parents who have children that play. There's something that everyone can learn in there - guaranteed 😅
Let us know what you think!
