Milford on Sea Tennis & Squash Club have new tennis coach.
Caitlin Inglis, has joined the coaching team alongside longstanding coach Daniel Hitchins. Both are LTA Level 4 Senior Coaches - Accredited+.
The best way to find out more about Caitlin is for her to introduce herself:
“My love for tennis started at 4 years old at my local tennis club, Strathgryffe, on the West Coast of Scotland. 24 years later and my love for tennis has only grown. Throughout my junior years I played many County, National and International tournaments which allowed me to compete across the UK and in Europe. My highlight was representing Scotland in the 6 Nations Junior Tournament.
At the age of 21, I completed my LTA Level 4 Senior Performance Coach Qualification. This allowed me to specialise in performance coaching and led me to coach some of the best 12–18 year olds in the country; some of which have gone on to play Division 1 College Tennis in the States or play tennis full time as a career.
I gained more experience coaching at a Tennis Academy in New York. This allowed me to widen my knowledge and experience through understanding the American tennis philosophy as well as our British approach and values.
Most recently, I have been the Junior Tennis Professional at David Lloyd Poole for 6 years, here I was able to grow the junior tennis programme to 150 children a week.
My philosophy is that no matter what age, gender or ability level, tennis is a sport for everyone. My goal is for every tennis session to be challenging, progressive, engaging and most importantly FUN! If someone walks out of a lesson and has enjoyed themselves, learnt something new, with the feeling that they have accomplished their goal that day and want to come back for more challenges, then that is my job done.
I love working with all ages and levels and meeting new people.
Outside of tennis I have a passion for cooking and baking, I’ve been known for making a mean brownie!”
