Sebastian has been coaching high-performance tennis for over a decade. As part of the Team Ontario Coaching Staff, he works with both the U10 and U12 Provincial Training Centre (PTC) programs and currently coaches Team Ontario at the U12 National Championships.

Sebastian’s Story

Sebastian is proud of his grassroots tennis upbringing, built not through famous academies but through countless hours of training with his coach and mentor on the very same courts where he now teaches.

“These courts have a very special place in my heart. They were my home during my formative teenage years, they gave me lifelong friendships and a purpose. I hope to create a training environment that is at least as good as the one I experienced, and I am excited to share the coaching and playing knowledge I have gained over the years with the players at our club.”

Sebastian’s Vision for Edenbridge Tennis Club

“My vision for Edenbridge Tennis Club includes a culture where high-performance tennis lives next court to grassroots development, where adults can watch tomorrow’s prodigies train and where young campers have role models to look up to.

I want to bridge the gap between recreational and competitive tennis, giving every player the sense that, if they want to reach higher levels, the resources and expertise are here to help them get there.

At the same time, I hope Edenbridge Tennis Club continues to be a social pillar in our community, a place where people come not only to play but to connect, laugh, and build lifelong friendships.”
