So this year’s event fits tradition. Darren Potkey, USTA Georgia’s Executive Director, helped spread the word, and Bill Dopp, USTA’s Director of Tennis Service Representatives & Pro Relations, led the training session.
Attendees included fifteen coaches from the Metropolitan Atlanta area, high school students, community residents, tennis players, and other tennis enthusiasts.
Those attending learned best practices about teaching beginner youth and adult players, and how to organize, structure, and offer training sessions.
