Get to know: Coach Jazz

Q: How would you describe your coaching style and the way you connect with your players? Jazz: I would say that my coaching style is to have fun, because at the end of the day if the kids have fun, they're more likely to remember the session and come back!

Q: If you could have a theme song play every time you walk onto the court, what would it be? Jazz: Mamma Mia - ABBA

Q: What's your pet peeve when it comes to coaching tennis? 

Jazz: My pet peeve is when the players don’t run to the ball!

Q: What is a highlight of your coaching journey so far?

Jazz: My highlight so far is when I saw one of my students out while I was having lunch with my family and she drew me a picture and gave it to me.

Q: What do you like the most about being a part of the Tennis Life team?

Jazz: I think that being one of the few female coaches on the team, gives me an opportunity to stand out in my own way, and all the lead coaches are great mentors for me as a coach!

Q: When you're not on court, what's something you like to do in your spare time?

Jazz: I love spending time with my mates or working on a sewing project.

Q: Who would be in your dream doubles/mixed doubles team (celebrity or pro)?

Jazz: Roger Federer

Q: If you could spend a week with a professional player and their team, who would it be and why?

Jazz: Roger Federer because he’s from Switzerland and Switzerland is my dream holiday destination so he can give me a tour.
