"Chris has been a great tennis coach to my daughter Daisy from the summer of 2014 to date. This has been a crucial stage in her tennis development, as she started competing at the end of August 2014 as a 10.2, and has just achieved her 8.2 rating in April 2015.
"I believe that this rapid progression is due to Chris's patience, encouragement and recognition of how Daisy learns. Daisy enjoys her lessons with Chris immensely and makes sure I text him with the results of all her tournaments (including the bad bits). Chris always responds with enthusiasm and determination to find a way for Daisy to overcome difficulties.
"He is always keen no matter what the weather and it would be wonderful to see him in a senior or head coach position in the future - this would be well deserved."
