Several months ago, Tennis Parent (and now, Podcaster!), Robert Garrett called and asked me if I would ever consider doing an episode where he could ask questions of a top junior player, parent, and coach. Of course, I said YES, and this week’s episode is the outcome of that conversation.
Coach Todd Widom, who y’all have heard from many times on ParentingAces, arranged for his young player, Ronnie Hohmann, and Ronnie’s parents, Ron and Judy, to come on the podcast so that Robert could ask them pointed questions about how Ronnie progressed from beginner to 2017 Eddie Herr 16s Champion. The Hohmanns were incredibly honest in their responses to Robert’s questions, giving all of you some great information as you help your own junior player reach his/her highest potential.
Please remember, though, that this is only one family’s experience. There are so many pathways through Junior Tennis, and I hope to be able to have more of these types of conversations with families and coaches over the next few months.
You will hear the Little Mo tournaments referenced. You can find more info on Little Mo here.
