Jay is currently in New York coaching players as part of the Tennis Australia Coaching Team during the US Open. In this week’s episode, he discusses the unique nature of this year’s Open as well as his own coaching philosophy when it comes to Junior Development.
Jay is committed to open communication with Tennis Parents and understands why Parents are such an integral part of the overall journey. He grew up in an era in Australia where private tennis lessons were a rare privilege and getting together with peers to play practice matches and just have fun on a tennis court were the norm. Jay encourages his players to take initiative in order to develop into top competitors, not just top ball strikers.
