Testimonial
To whom it may concern, I would like to give my reference in relation to Sunny Dimic, who was the former Head Coach at Coombe Wood tennis club. I trained with Sunny for 3 years, regularly having two lessons a week, in the summer and the winter. I was looking to improve my game and imagined I would only have a few lessons, but we developed a great rapport with each other, especially as Sunny always made the lessons not only technical but fun and interesting. I saw how fantastic he was with the kids at the club and really put a lot of effort into organising and promoting the kid's camps, which I was more than happy to send my daughter to. I would not hesitate to recommend him as a Head Coach, a role which I am sure he would bring his warmth, experience enthusiasm and expertise.

My name is Philip Parkin and I have known Sunny for over 20 years. I have always found Sunny to be very professional and organised. He is a great coach to all levels and continues to strive to improve. I would highly recommend Sunny to anyone who wants to improve their tennis programme or their own tennis.

Testimonial
I have known Sunny for more than 20 years. We previously worked together at The Chris Lane Club, an independent tennis & family club in Surrey. He is reliable, organised, trustworthy and extremely professional with a sound knowledge of teaching tennis. He is able to work with players of all ages & abilities in both group or 1:1 situations. He is friendly and able to engage with all types of people. He is also one of the hardest working Tennis Pro's I have ever worked with! I can vouch for Sunny 100% and am more than happy to give him a reference if needed.
