ABOUT US

Mad athletes

All coaches of Mad Athletes are coached and instructed to follow the same philosophies and beliefs of Head Coach and Director Michael Dracos. Constant feedback regarding lesson plans, areas to improve on are communicated to all coaches to ensure each player gets the same high performance service from all our coaches.

The Mad Athletes way of teaching is based on hard work, holistically developing each individual’s game, repetition of proven match play strategies and hard work again! We try to achieve all of this whilst creating a fun environment that you look forward to attending.

If you have any questions on anything regarding our programs and how we can benefit you in either a tennis or fitness objective CONTACT US and we’re more than happy to answer all your questions.
