Thank goodness I joined PPTR and did their platform tennis training workshop with Jack Waite. Jack is a ten! So knowledgeable, a superior player but more importantly just a really great guy. Between the online course with Patricio Misitrano and guidance from the PPTR office and my on court training; I feel ready to hit the ground running being the solo women paddle pro at my club.
