Lower Hutt Tennis Club

Lower Hutt Tennis Club Coach

For any coaching please contact Michael McGlinchey on (0272) 81 81 81 or mcglincheycoaching@gmail.com.

I am 24 years old, born and raised in Upper Hutt and now residing in Wellington. Tennis has always been a passion of mine; I first picked up a racquet at 8 years old and instantly loved it. I played out a junior career which included representing the Hutt Valley, representing Central and eventually had me traveling overseas to compete in ITF’s. Recently my playing career has had me playing for Tawa in Premier 1, winning back to back titles in 2015/16 & 2016/17 and reach a high of s2 on the configure ranking list. This season you will see me wearing a Lower Hutt shirt competing for the top men’s team at the club.
At 17 years old I started my coaching career at the Upper Hutt Tennis Club and am now leaving my role as head coach at Khandallah to coach at Lower Hutt. Since 2014, I have held the ITF Level 1 Qualification and have been on the waitlist for the ITF Level 2 Qualification for over a year. I have had experience coaching all ages; coaching players as young as three and as experienced as 76. I have coached performance players who have represented Wellington and have a lot of experience coaching complete beginners; whatever your tennis goal is, I can help you achieve it!
I will be at the club over the Love Tennis Weekend on the 8/9 September. I’m looking forward to meeting everyone over the weekend and having a hit with you all on court!
