Blast Sports

Katie 14, of Barangaroo, now after 2 years is starting to love tennis more than anything in her week, as she’s running and moving well and understanding each segment of her swing. Happy to play twice week now

Lefty 11yo Mel of Sydney Olympic Park at Coolabah st Beverly Hills AUS working on the height of her backswing, just loves to WACK the ball

Maya (13) has a great attitude and has just begun her 2nd year of lessons at Beverly Hills (AUS) on August 30

Maya 13, has been training now for a year twice a week and will play her first competition match at Beverly Hills (AUS) on August 30

Half Aussie, Julia 11, working with new Blast associate coach Vasili Pysrras in Burbank LA - great work ethic

Blast is also very passionate about coaching adults too, here’s Brad fine tuning his strokes - recreational or competitive players, we still want good technical strokes to prevent injury and reach maximum enjoyment

This is my 5th Qantas flight back to Sydney from LA, and Qantas would have to be Australia’s no 1 iconic brand. On the way over here on July 18, the flight was the best ever with 2 good movies, lots of healthy good tasting food, and the service from the Australian hosties was unbeatable.

Backhands too, Marilyn now changing to 2 handed backhand, luckily she had the correct grip when she used one had only, so transitioning to 2 hands very simple as long as she steps forward

Practice makes perfect - I said to Marilyn that after 4 decades of coaching, I like coaching recreational players just as much as tournament players - and that she’s improving as quickly as anyone - better strokes and good aerobic workout without ball doing visualisation and at home looking in the mirror like all good dancers
