Testimonials

Marina Erakovic, Highest ranked WTA player in NZ’s history

“ I had the privilege of working with Wesley for just over a year and have known him for a long time. His knowledge of the game is exceptional, spanning from young players to professionals. He has a calm and composed approach, with a deep understanding of tactics and how to refine technique to elevate performance. Wesley traveled with me during my last year on tour, offering invaluable guidance both on and off the court. Beyond the technical aspects, he played a huge role in helping me stay mentally strong—teaching me how to approach matches with confidence, and most importantly, find enjoyment in the game. His positive energy made the journey both productive and fun, and I’m incredibly grateful for his support."
