Our weekend on the 27 to 28th September was fantastic , even better than expected. All 12 of us thoroughly enjoyed every part of it, good drills and fun learning and the location was really good , most of the group saying it’s the best thing they have done Tennis wise and would love to visit again soon . We all learnt a great deal from the coaching so thanks again Nick good job .
Just a quick note to thank you for our tennis holiday in Marlow the other weekend.
Andrew and I had a great time and we look forward to seeing you again next year. The coaching was great and the drills were very creative and relevant. I particularly liked the individual coaching as we ran around the net and it was also great to not be overloaded with suggested changes. Keep up the good work.
I have been meaning to get in touch for a while. Just to say that we had an absolutely excellent week in Barnham Broom. The coaching was fantastic and we have certainly taken our new skills to the court. Please pass on our thanks to the lovely coaches and also commend them for their patience. We had a great group too!
Value for money. We felt that the combination of the high quality instruction/courts/facilities and the very nice rooms at the Crowne Plaza made the cost of the weekend, an amount that many of us felt was on the high side when signing up, utterly worthwhile. We also made it more affordable by going to the Donkey pub for dinner. Andy the owner there extremely helpful and cute, food is decent and shots are 3 for a fiver! Only share this with your quality clients, obviously.
I just wanted to write and thank you and Mike for such enjoyable sessions over the weekend for our tennis coaching. It was great fun and I know we all learnt a lot – just hope we manage to put it into practice!
I know we all had a great time and were talking about returning on another one of your weekends. Very many thanks to both of you for all your hard work.
We’ve just taken part in our 3rd Okehampton mid-week tennis break and want to let you know how much we enjoyed it. Nick and Roger did a wonderful job as usual and created a great atmosphere both on and off the court. They are so adept in their coaching and ensure that everyone on the course gains from the experience and achieves personal success.
Hi Nick, Thank you for your prompt reply and your excellent customer service. I intend to write a brilliant review for your tennis Leisure clinic. I have already recommended your services to many David Lloyd members here at Southampton West End and the one in Southampton Nurseling.
I just wanted to drop you a quick note to say thank you for the tennis coaching at the weekend. We had such a great time and the coaching was super fun and helpful, without being overwhelming. I am just waiting for some better weather so I can try some of it!
I have been in a few tennis holidays and your coaching was the most enjoyable.
Useful drills, some completely new to us, in 10 minute bursts, felt dynamic and interesting and we all noticed how well thought out they were – breaking skills down and then gradually adding complexity in a way that felt manageable and memorable. We also noted that the visual demonstrations of what we are doing versus what we should be doing were really helpful. Will be interesting to see if we can retain any of it for next time!
Just wanted to thank you for our Marlow tennis weekend. We really had a great time and coaching was fab. Will be looking at booking another!
Tailor-made instruction. This was the other main USP we thought. Unlike many other tennis providers who teach from a set crib-sheet, we felt that you understood that different to beginners/juniors, we have already accrued skills that we value (even if they aren’t going to win any grand slams) so what we want is sustained ‘small progress’ tips and ideas about how to take these further – rather than to learn techniques that don’t make sense to us. Remind me to tell you about one of our coaches who tried to ram ‘I’ formation and complicated hand signals into a doubles lesson when none of the participants could a) bend over/crouch down or b) particularly aim their serve.
Dear Nick, Just a quick email to say that, once again, Nick and Mike did a great job coaching the group over the weekend. Please thank them from us all though I think everyone did that as they said goodbye after lunch. The hotel was SO much better than normal. In particular, the bar staff…
Apologies for this delayed feedback following the Norfolk Break in August but your coaches, Nick and Mike, were once again absolutely incredible in their coaching skills and their characters made the break lots of fun.
Hello Nick – just a note to say many thanks for the weekend. It was really useful. I am sure you will see me again!
Just wanted to drop a line to say how much I’d enjoyed the week at the manor house with your team.
Nick and Roger made a great coaching team, both coming at the problem from slightly different perspectives. They made the week fun but informative and I was able to play a lot of great tennis.
I would highly recommend your courses and once I’ve had a look at the calendar, I’m hoping too attend a weekend course in Nottingham. Can I extend my thanks to both Nick and Roger for making the week so good.
Coaches were so warm and engaging from the get-go, setting the tone by learning all our names within the first few minutes and using them confidently so everyone felt in good hands immediately. This ability to build trust quickly and effectively is pretty rare I think and depends a lot on personality. You also made us feel that you enjoyed coaching us! This rapport you and Mike created is probably the main reason we would want to come back.
Just wanted to thank you for a wonderful few days of coaching and fun at Thorpeness. I learned so much and can’t wait to put it all into practice.
The whole experience from your coaching, the hotel and food and of course the stunning location were all first class.
A quick bit of feedback to say that Josh ran the show in Norfolk very well. There was a good mix of drills, doubles tactics and match play which put it all together.
He kept the whole thing moving along smoothly. In addition he was superbly well organised so that we all mixed around fairly on court.
His organisation was much noticed and appreciated by everybody.
Just wanted to drop you a line to say thank you so much for a fantastic tennis camp. I thoroughly enjoyed it and have picked up so, SO many useful tips. I can’t wait to put them all into practice.
We will definitely be returning next year. Absolutely loved it.
I just wanted to write to you to let you know how much David and I enjoyed the tennis break we had at Barnham Broom last week with Mike. The hotel was good, but the tennis was great. We both felt we improved under Mike’s excellent tutelage. As a group we all got on well both on and off the court which was a bonus. A fabulous four days!
Nick, le Touquet was just excellent. Mike and Nick did a brilliant job and we all had a great time. Thanks for running it with so few of us. It was very special. Getting bumped off court by President Macron will stay long in my memory!!
Nick, we had a great time. Mike’s coaching just gets better and better. Everyone was extremely pleased with the facilities, the coaching and the hotel. thank you.
A huge thanks for our wonderful weekend. The tuition was excellent and I really enjoyed Mike and Damien’s warm friendly positive style of tuition and tips I am definitely coming back!
Professionalism throughout by very engaged coaches. Neither you nor Mike looked at your phones once during the entire 8 hours! Instead, both of you spent every minute playing/feeding/instructing or watching individual players in rotation, giving tips where appropriate. The sessions felt all about us, rather than the coaching. We have all had to endure our fair share of ego-heavy tennis coaches who talk talk talk, name-drop constantly or love to excessively show off their shots etc so this was particularly appreciated.
Dear Nick, Just to say how much I enjoyed the weekend. The instruction was brilliant and I loved the tennis club and Le Touquet and thought the accommodation was spot on. Please do add me to any mailing list for future trips.
Hi Nick Thank you for such an informative and fun weekend. We all loved it and will be back next year ☺️ We just need to get get Christmas out of the way and they I will confirm numbers but we will be looking at approximately 8 ladies ☺️ Speak to you soon.
