Recovery has become one of the hottest topics in junior tennis talk over the last few years. With the implementation of doubles at so many events, kids are finding themselves consistently playing 3-4 matches a day. That’s a lot of tennis for young kids, especially in the summer. Understandably so, I’ve heard of many players whose level of tennis drops precipitously towards the end of the tournament, right at the most important time to play one’s best tennis. Hopefully this podcast can help players avoid that same fate, and instead play their best tennis when it really counts.

What are you willing to tolerate on your high performance junior tennis journey? Some people can't handle the emotional outbursts, bad line calls, frustrating parents, and the overall emotional roller coaster. They want a nice respectful game, with a nice relaxing atmosphere, and if goals aren't achieved, it's not a problem. Others can tolerate the roller coaster so long as progress is being made and the child is showing continuous signs of happiness. Unfortunately you have to pick. Striving to have a beautiful and calm atmosphere with continuous progress will more than likely not be a successful journey. Check out www.aubonetennis.com for more!

This is part 2 of a 2-part special guest episode with Christopher Trizzino. In part 1 Chris shared his fearless journey of how he started tennis very late at the age of 13, fell in love with coaching but had no idea how to succeed with it, and now runs one of the best academies in the entire region. This episode is a great reminder that you don't need to plan every step of your journey in order to succeed. In this episode, Chris discusses the importance he places on parent education, being present at tournaments, and creating a team atmosphere in an individual sport.

One of the least talked about areas parents have to deal with is the time in-between 2nd and 3rd sets. I wonder how many parents were given the heads up that they'd be put in a situation where they'd have to consider putting their coaching hat on. It's an unfair position to be put in. Parents aren't coaches! They're just there to parent, and this is a delicate and important moment in the match. How they handle this time is important! They can either provide more anxiety for their child, or bring calmness and confidence. I hope the few things I mention in the blog provide some help in handling these situations when the coach is not present. Check out www.aubonetennis.com for more!

A champion is someone who gets up when he can’t” - Jack Dempsey It’s a hard thing to explain to someone if they haven’t gone through something incredibly difficult and challenging, and refused to back down. It can also seem like an unfair thing to explain to a young athlete. When talking to a child, a psychologist probably wouldn’t be too happy with a coach saying physical effort is not enough, and that deep inside that child has an extra gear, a 6th or 7th gear they need to tap into to take their game to the next level. I’ve had to do that before. It’s tough and I need to be careful with my words, but I’m not in the happiness business. I’m in the high performance business. I’m in the growth business. I’m in the “I’ll be happy when I’m improving as a tennis player while trying to achieve my goals” type of business. It’s not for everyone. I say it all the time. There’s multiple ways to enjoy tennis. Choosing the right path is important because that’s where you’ll find true happiness. Neither one is wrong. But if being the best tennis player you can possibly be during competition is the tennis journey that’s for you, then you need to know the difference between a good attitude and a champions attitude, and embrace it.

Answering this question is straight forward, but finding that type of environment is difficult. -There will always be a higher level training group so at some point, a coach has to say no, they can’t move you up. -Does the player show a disciplined effort to train at 100% no matter who they're with? -Is it fair for the higher level players when the lower level player joins them? -Can you get better training with a lower level player? These are the things I discuss in this podcast, along with how important it actually is to train with higher level players.

This week we have a special episode! It's the first time we have a guest joining us. Marcelo Ferreira, Windy Hill High Performance Tennis Manager joined us to discuss the incredible program he's built in Atlanta, GA. Marcelo discusses how culture, character and discipline come first, and then tennis. Their person first approach combined with their holistic mindset is what makes their program so unique. Fitness, yoga, meditation, nutrition, and mental skills training are a mandatory part of their program. Their group sizes are limited, and their dedication to proper development is refreshing in today's climate of revenue first programs. It's no surprise that their program has turned out the #1 girls 12u player in the country, as well as this year's Boy's 16u Eddie Herr Doubles Champion. I hope you enjoy today's episode, and if you'd like to reach out to Marcelo, his contact information is below: Email: ⁠Marceloferreira2310@gmail.com Instagram: coachferreiratennis Click here to view the Windy Hill Athletic Club

This podcast crossed my mind as I put myself in the shoes of many parents, and wondered what type of training setup I would look for if my son decided to pursue high performance tennis. I tried to be reasonable. Of course I’d want everything on site right ? Nutritionist. Mental coach. Physical therapist. Restaurant. Indoor courts. Classroom. Locker rooms. Etc. Etc.. The list could go on forever. But few places like that exist, and they’re usually part of a massive operation. I don’t want to be a part of a massive operation. I want something small. Something where a team and family atmosphere can be created. Something where a kid doesn’t get lost in the shuffle and thrown on the back courts if they aren’t performing at the highest level of tennis. Thinking about what that might realistically look for, I came up with the list in the photo above. (If you haven’t done so, please read the list on the photo at the beginning of this post).
