Hi sheddie
I do go up to sanchez now and again to tournaments its just up the road from where i live.
Didnt know that Rice was working up there, have to go to sanchez on Tuesday so will find out,(thats if it stops raining!) very good move for him if he is!

JK, do you coach at some academy or a normal club? Also, what sort of players do you focus on? Younger players or people of all ages?

And I'll be glad to find confirmation on the Ricey rumour.

Hi Greenleaf
I work out of a tennis club over here in Barcelona, we are a small team who work with a couple of up and coming tennis player.
I work along side a fittness coach and a Spanish coach (pro hitter) we work with players at the moment who are 13 15 and two 16 year olds.
I allso do some adult coaching at weekends and evenings to keep me going.
will get back to you about Rice.
Thanks

Hi Drew and Steven
Thanks for posting.
There are alot of british players out here training so am glad i can be a mole for you! but what i see of the Brit kids is not great i have to say, alot of them just seem to be here becaue they can! (money)
I have to say also that there a couple of Brits that are working hard and it was a very good move for them to come out here and train. Have worked in many places and they have got it right over in this part of the tennis world 
Thanks guys for making me welcome
