April Coach Features


Power of Her Scholarship

 

We are opening our first-ever Power of Her Scholarship, designed to empower women coaches to continue learning and growing.

 

While 44% of USTA New England's seasonal coaches are women, only 25% of all certified teaching professionals nationwide are female. Let's change that together.

 

This scholarship supports women (18+) at any stage of their coaching journey, providing financial assistance for training, certification, and career advancement.

 

The scholarship is for $250 to use towards professional development. We are happy to award 10 scholarships at this time!


US Open Ticket Giveaway

 

Nominate your favorite coach and automatically enter them for a chance to win a loaded 2025 US Open package!
 
We'll kick off National Tennis Month on May 1st by randomly selecting one lucky coach to win a pair of courtside tickets to Arthur Ashe Stadium, a hotel in NYC and transportation to and from the US Open!
 
Please be sure to carefully read the directions on the form before nominating!

    Early in my conversation with Trinity College women’s tennis coach Mike Louis, he said something that could serve as a thesis for his coaching: “Tennis is the easy part.” The difficult work, he said, is everything else: character, relationships, education. It is a perspective that has changed over the years. When Mike was younger, winning occupied a much larger percentage of his attention. But he no longer believes winning is enough. “If you’re not doing it with the right people,” he said, “it doesn’t really mean anything.” Read More
  • At my first team meeting at the University of Denver, I put the team into groups of three and asked them to list the essential features of a healthy relationship between two players. These nine players came back with fifty-two unique ideas. 52! I was good for 10 or 15, but not 52. What struck me was how much they already knew, the wisdom that the question uncovered. Their collective knowledge had been there all along, in a room full of college students I had assumed I needed to teach. But no one had ever asked them this question. Read More
