He has been a head coach for three years, earning honors as Coach of the Year in 2011.

Classes are separated by skill levels. Black Falcon is for beginning tennis players, Red Falcon is for players that have played junior varsity tennis or are looking to try out for a tennis team and Super Falcon is for those who have played on a varsity team or have the skills to make a varsity tennis team.

Private lessons will be offered from each of the coaches. All coaches will have the same price for lessons which will be $30 dollars per hour. These lessons can be set up at anytime by contacting them and setting it up.
