Damien started to work with my son Aiden two years ago. The way he’s teaching tennis is different. I could instantly see the change in Aiden and he experienced rapid progress. His confidence is rising during competition.”

“Damien’s Tennis Master Sytem is amazing. I can’t recognise my daughter’s game! Now, she looks strong on the court. Her technique and movement have improved quickly. She knows what to do, and more important, she knows how to stay calm and self-correct her errors.”
