LifeTime Tennis Australia

Pat Rafter - Former World No 1 / Australian Davis Cup Player/ Australian of The Year-2003.

I have trained with Gary Stickler and the LifeTime tennis system for over ten years and owe much of my success to this world class program. Gary and his team are considered to operate one of Australia's foremost tennis programs and have been named Queensland Tennis Coach of The Year on six occasions and Australian Tennis Coach of The Year twice. I recommend the LifeTime tennis program to players of all ages and standards.

Matt Klein- Queensland's No 1 Domestic Player 2009

I have trained in the LifeTime Tennis program since I was twelve years of age. The LifeTime coaches care about me and my tennis and I believe that I would not be where I am today with my tennis if I had not made a decision to become involved with LifeTime Tennis.

Ashling Sumner- 2009 Queensland Open Winner/ 2008 Australian 16's Singles Champion

Before being selected in Tennis Australia's National High Performance Academy I trained with the coaches at the LifeTime Tennis Academy in Brisbane. I have made a decision to train in the LifeTime program once again and my results speak for themselves.

Ron & Shona Millman - Former High-Performance Sports People / Physical Education Teachers / Tennis Centre Owners

When our son John was looking to train full-time and travel the international tennis circuit we were very careful in selecting what we saw as the right program for him. We have both played sport and national and international level, as well as over twenty years as Physical Education teachers in Queensland schools. We have never regretted selecting the LifeTime Tennis system. John's world ranking has improved from 1650 to 380 in under eighteen months.

Anthony & Natalie Davidson - Former State and Nationally Ranked Player / Former Tennis Queensland C.E.O.

With my background in tennis competition and administration I have an understanding in what to look for in a good tennis program. LifeTime Tennis operate a range of fun filled coaching and competition programs for players of all ages and standards and I believe them to be one of the best tennis providers in the business. I would recommend LifeTime Tennis to anyone wishing to learn the game or improve their standard.

Brett Robinson - Former Leading Queensland Player / Overseas Playing Experience

My three children all play tennis and I searched for a long time for a good tennis program for them. I finally settled on the LifeTime Tennis program and I have never been happier with my decision. All the kids look forward to attending lessons each week, and they are all improving. One of my sons has recently won the Queensland championship in his age group.

Nick Bains - Parent of Emerging Junior Player

When we shifted from England three years ago I evaluated a number of tennis academies to find the right one for my children. My daughter had been identified by the British Lawn Tennis Association for special coaching and development with Boris Becker and we wished to give her similar opportunities here in Australia. We chose LifeTime Tennis to give our children the opportunity to become "The best they can be", and have been amazed at the quality of the program. We had heard of the players that LifeTime have previously developed but weren't prepared for the quality of the program. The coaches make it fun while learning the skills of the game.

Murray Whitbread- Queensland Country Coach of The Year 2001/ Coach of State and National Titleholders.

When my players have outgrown the services offered here in Bundaberg I recommend they attend the LifeTime Academy in Brisbane. I have known Gary Stickler and the LifeTime coaches for over twenty years and recommend them to any player with the passion to play tennis for a living.

John James- Winner of 6 Queensland Opens/ International Coaching and Playing Experience.

When I finished my playing career and decided tennis coaching would be my living, I chose LifeTime Tennis to do my traineeship with. LifeTime use the "game sense" style of teaching which helps every student to grow from all their tennis experiences, not just the ones they share with a coach. I believe deciding to work in the LifeTime Tennis system has developed the coaching skills I have today.

Wayne Hannah- Former International Player and Coach/ N.Q. Leading Coach

I have known Gary Stickler for over twenty years, and have worked closely with him for a number of years in developing a number of Queensland leading players.
