Hello tennis folks! Today in this short episode we’ve invited Ben Hestley. Today he is not here to reveal any secret trick to enhance your playing style. Instead it's straight forward advice to help you understand how important "mini-tennis" can be to your development as a player. Improve your touch, practice angles, and definitely put some work into your spins. Hit the play button to listen!

Ben Hestley is the founder of Bull Shark Sports, a company dedicated to developing athletes' skills through tennis and other sports. With years of experience coaching and training athletes, Ben is a strong advocate for multi-sport athletes and the unique benefits tennis offers, especially when it comes to improving coordination, reaction time, and focus.

Ben's key tip in this episode: tennis is not just a sport in itself, but a tool that enhances performance in other ball sports. He compares tennis to playing catch, but with rackets, emphasizing how the ball tracking skills developed on the tennis court will improve your child's ability to track balls in other sports. Ben encourages parents to introduce their kids to tennis, whether they already play other sports or are just starting.
