Meet Coach Mike – Founder of Champions Tennis
Coach Mike is the founder and owner of Champions Tennis, driven by a passion to grow the game of tennis and a mission to Build Champions for Life.

An all-around athlete growing up, Coach Mike played baseball, basketball, soccer, and ran cross country. His coaching journey began as a teenager with the Gwinnett County Parks and Recreation Department in Georgia, where he coached t-ball, basketball, and soccer.

Although he only played tennis socially in his youth—structured tennis programs weren't available until high school, and by then, it felt like it was too late—he later discovered his love for the sport through an adult beginner class. That experience sparked a deep appreciation for tennis and its unique physical, mental, and social benefits.

Recognizing tennis as the world's healthiest sport, Coach Mike is committed to helping kids discover a love for the game early on. Through safe, structured, and fun instruction, he aims to give every young athlete the chance he never had growing up.

Coach Mike is also a proud 19-year veteran of the U.S. Air Force and currently serves in the Texas Air National Guard.
