Jake Warrington
Head Coach – Surbiton Methodist Tennis Club
With over 12 years of coaching experience, Jake is an LTA Level 3 Accredited Coach, fully insured and first aid trained, with a passion for helping players of all ages and abilities develop their tennis and reach their individual potential.
As Head Coach at Surbiton Methodist Tennis Club, Jake delivers a structured and progressive coaching programme designed to support players throughout their tennis journey - from children picking up a racket for the first time, through to junior players looking to compete and adults wanting to improve their skills, fitness and confidence on court.
Develop. Compete. Succeed.Jake's coaching philosophy is centred around strong technical foundations, intelligent decision-making and long-term player development. Sessions are carefully structured to ensure players understand not only how to execute a shot, but also when and why to use it in a match situation.
His coaching approach combines technical development with movement, positioning, consistency, tactics, point construction and match play. Players are encouraged to challenge themselves, develop independence on court and build the confidence required to compete effectively.
For junior players, Jake places particular emphasis on creating a positive, energetic and enjoyable learning environment, while maintaining clear standards and expectations. He believes that developing good habits from an early age provides players with the foundations to progress confidently through each stage of their tennis development.
For adults, coaching is tailored to individual goals - whether that is learning the fundamentals, improving technique, becoming more consistent, developing tactical awareness or preparing for competitive tennis.
Jake is committed to creating a coaching environment where players are encouraged to work hard, enjoy their tennis and continually strive to improve. His lessons are inclusive of players with disabilities and those who are neurodivergent.
“My coaching centres on strong technical understanding, long-term player development and creating a disciplined, positive training environment where every player is encouraged to challenge themselves, build confidence and reach their potential.”
