Dido (pronounced ‘Dee-do’) is our new Sunday coach at Halton. Friendly and approachable and with over 20 years of coaching experience in three...
Here is a short introduction from Matt:
I first started playing tennis when I was 4 years old and have loved it ever since. I think the best part of playing as a junior was County Cup and playing as part of a team and I ended my junior career
ranked 19 in GB at 18U. I have continued to represent Shropshire in their men’s team for the past 10 years and have faced the likes of Roy Knight on a few occasions!I began coaching when I was 19 at a club in Portugal and then came back to the UK to coach in Shropshire at Ellesmere College. The programme grew quickly, and I spent 6 years coaching all levels
of juniors and I became Head of Performance in this, my final year, working with County, National and Junior ITF level players. I have also been working with Tennis Shropshire for 4 years, captaining
the U18 boys and the U11/U12 boys which I thoroughly enjoy.I am currently undertaking my LTA Level 4 Senior Performance Coach qualification and am finding it a great opportunity to learn and develop as a coach. I am very excited to be given the opportunity to be part of the Everyballl Team at Halton and can’t wait to start working with everyone in the programme and at the club. I very much look forward to meeting you soon!
A warm welcome to the club Matt and we look forward to having you on board.
