Further information

My entry into high performance tennis started in 2016 when I started working at SotoTennis Academy in the south of Spain. Here I got the chance to work with a wide variety of high level players across different age groups.

The last 7 years I’ve specialised in female tennis, having the opportunity to work with girls on all different levels. From national to ITF and WTA level.

At the moment I’m the head of female tennis at SotoTennis Academy in Spain. Coaching and supporting a group of high level girls in different age groups on their journey in the tennis world.

My philosophy is based on connection in the first place. Before bringing order into my players game being game specific minded. While using technique and data as tools to reach the set goals. Apart from that I believe it’s crucial to put a lot of emphasis on the mental fitness of my players so they are able to deal with high pressure moments in the best possible way.

Experience

Over the last 15 years I’ve been working with a wide variety of female players. From high national level players to top 100 ITF juniors, Grand slam and Billie Jean King Cup players, like:

Testimonial

Joshua is a tennis nerd in the best possible way. He lives and breathes tennis and is always looking for ways to improve his knowledge about the game. I have especially noticed, in my work alongside Joshua, that his tactical knowledge is huge and the way he helps players create their playing identity is impressive to me

Mr. A.B.

Testimonial

I would highly recommend Josh in the coaching world. I've worked with Josh for the past 2 years, and have always been impressed with his coaching capabilities at the performance level along with his dedication to lead the 15+ girls programme. He is highly organised and loves to learn. He is someone who will always be open to feedback on the court and is always looking to try and help the players he works with to develop as people, as well as tennis players. He has a real passion for the sport and would be a brilliant coach to add to any programme, academy or pro players team.
