For Tennis Parents by a Tennis Parent

Welcome to Season 11, Episode 4, of the ParentingAces Podcast, a proud member of the Tennis Channel Podcast Network. This week we discuss helping your child become self-reliant which leads to becoming a better competitor with coaching experts Carlos and Josh Goffi.

Because of some technical difficulties during the recording of this episode, we only have audio this week:

Carlos and Josh are a father-son duo who, between them, have played and coached tennis at very high levels. Carlos was John McEnroe’s developmental coach starting around age 14 and also coached John and his brother Patrick on the ATP tour. Josh is the Head Men’s Coach at the University of South Carolina who coached two of his players to the NCAA finals in the last two years – a first since 2004: back-to-back finalists by the same school. In this week’s episode, Carlos and Josh discuss their own coaching philosophies in terms of developing top tennis players but, more importantly, developing top human beings.
