CPD For Coaches

CONTINUOUS PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME FOR COACHES

Tennis Coach Ireland (TCI) works with Tennis Ireland on the coach Continuous Development Programme (CPD). All TCI members are informed of the programme and how it operates, and of ongoing CPD opportunities.

If a coach is not a member of TCI, but wishes to be involved in CPD (usually for Tennis Ireland Licensing purposes; see note below), TCI will keep a record on their behalf of the points gained if the coach informs TCI of the fact that they have accrued points and provides the necessary evidence. Coaches who are not members of TCI are welcome to attend TCI CPD events – charges may apply.

FOR MEMBERS ONLY:

TCI offers to examine and potentially ratify for CPD points events that are self-nominated by a coach (this is a time-consuming process and so is offered as an enhanced service to members only).

THE TOP TEN SYSTEM for COACHES

Aimed at coaches, parents, and players, the TOP 10 SYSTEM is a proven method developed by Spanish coach Óscar Borrás (based in Miami, USA), based on over 15 years of research and statistical analysis of more than 1,250 ATP and WTA professional matches.

Oscar will shortly deliver in Ireland an introductory certified course focusing on improving players’ technical, tactical, and mental performance through the principles followed by the world’s top players.
