Mohamed Omar - Tennis Coach

Cape Town
Burundi

Mohamed Omar

Tennis has been an integral part of my life since the age of 9, during which time I devoted considerable effort to mastering this beloved sport. Although my junior tennis career was not without its challenges, I competed regularly and persevered despite less than ideal training conditions. Looking back, I recognize the importance of gaining a deeper understanding of the nuances of the game at a young age, as this is paramount to achieving success and fulfilment in the sport.
