This includes training methods like plyometrics, speed and agility, endurance, strength training and core stability.As a Strength & Conditioning coach I will work along side the main tennis coaches at Batchwood, and help support the tennis programme by designing a comprehensive training programme that will target the physical need of tennis identified by the main coaches and myself.The Strength and Conditioning programme at Batchwood is supported via our regional LTA Strength & Conditioning Coach, Alexandra Reid.
