A Wheelchair Coaching Masterclass with Craig Allen
Episode description
This week on CTC, we welcome to the show coach of 31 time Grand Slam champion Alfie Hewett, Craig Allen!
Craig is a fantastic and generous guest, telling the great story of how he came to coach Alfie, giving his opinions on all things wheelchair tennis, and telling us about his experience coaching some of the brightest juniors in the UK, including Alistair Filmer and Lewis Burton.
This one is a must listen for all young coaches as Craig shares his invaluable advice from 35 years of experience, as well as sharing a little about how to get into pro-level coaching without necessarily being a professional yourself.
Craig's insight and passion for the game of wheelchair tennis is also endearing and fantastic to see so enjoy the episode!
