Santiago Echarren

Testimonial

I am writing this message to support my friend Santiago Echarren from Spain as a Tennis pro. As a tennis player, I was raked top 70 in Spain during the 1990's which allowed me to earn a full tennis scholarship in world famous program LSU (Louisiana State University) where I played in a solid top 10 Team in US NCAA Division 1 from 1992 to 1996. I was a teammate with ATP professionals such as Tamer El Say, Pedro Braga, Juha Pesola, Janne Holtari, Michal Chmela or Zack Blanchard. I know Santiago since I was 10 years old. I met him at a team tennis dual match when he was 15 years old and he was one of the players in the lineup for his team Club de Campo La Galera from Valladolid, Spain. He has played competitive tennis for all his life until he finished college in Spain. Having participations at several National Junior Championships in Spain. Santi, has a tennis coach degree for the Internationally acclaimed "Escuela de Maestría de Tennis" which is the only official tennis titulation is Spain as it is the sole official Tennis Diploma issued by The Royal Spanish Tennis Federation. You may only access to this course by National Tennis Ranking or by passing an "On Court Test" with the same people who will later be your teachers...if accepted. By experience, I tell you that this is the right course to take and the most prestigious tennis diploma to get in Spain and one of the best in Europe. Santiago, has the experience and the skills to carry a tennis academy or to be a tennis pro anywhere in the world. Why do I say this? Well, first he has passion for the sport and he enjoys teaching tennis at any level. When Santi was in college, he found time to launch a tennis school in his hometown of Valladolid. He had two indoor courts, that he rented and manage on his own. His people skills allowed him to achieve incredible numbers in a very short time. He had over 300 pupils in the first 2 years of the academy. He had played in all levels, from kids to competition groups and also both genders adult groups. Santi will be able to teach tennis at all level, from beginners at any age to competitors at any age or genders Where Santi exceeds the most, is as a 100% reliable good person. He comes from an excellent family where he was brought up with hard working and humble ethics, which I know currently are almos extinct. I can tell you this, because we Maher a flat in Madrid, Spain for more than five years (and are still great friends). Santi, is ambitious wherever place he takes over will rise to a new good level as he's creative and will generate good vives any place he lands at. Please do not hesitate to contact me if further information is required. Best regards
