Assistent of Sven Groenevld within the adidas Player Development Program I have been working under the flag of the adidas Player Development Program now since the US Open in August 2007. Officially i have been the assistent of the Top-Coach Sven Groeneveld and now as well of Darren Cahill. The responsibilities that i have start from making sure, that the players have the towels and the water for their practise, to making sure they have their practise courts. It also is assisting Sven Groeneveld and Darren Cahill to make their life easier, so they can focus and the most important things, helping the Tennis Players. Additionally i am playing with most of the players as well, so they players can also work on special fields during tournaments. It is more about having their back and helping them wherever you can and in Sven Greoneveld and Darren Cahill, i definitely have 2 of the best mentors i could have and i am very happy about that. Every day i am doing my best to learn as much as possible and be the best i can be. |
