Testimonial
I have known Darren Moore for around 10 years and have known him to be a very honest, passionate, dedicated, devoted and trustworthy person, not only as a friend but as a tennis coach alike. Darren's passion as a tennis coach is second to none; he goes way beyond the call of his job descriptions to gain maximum growth for his athletes and their families. Darren is not only a very passionate tennis coach but a great coach in his own right, his hunger for his athletes to succeed was always very evident to me as he would be studying and resourcing any information possible to have his players reach their full potential no matter what it took. Darren's passion for the sport has seen him grow to be one of Australia's elite player development coaches and any tennis program in the world would benefit from his knowledge and motivation for the sport. Please don't hesitate to contact myself if you have any further questions in regards to Darren.
