Loughborough University National Tennis Academy (LUNTA) is looking for an experienced and enthusiastic Boys Head Coach to support the performance of developing elite junior tennis players as part of the LTA’s Player Pathway.
The successful candidate will be responsible for the development and implementation of a world-class and transformative player development programme, to produce male players who upon departing the LUNTA meet the Pro Scholarship Programme (PSP) selection criteria and have potential to be inside the men’s top 100-ranked players, by nurturing the player, performer and person.
This role will form part of the LUNTA Senior Management Team (SMT). The Boys Head Coach will work with the Academy Manager, Girls Head Coach, Head of Performance Support and Head of Education and Player Wellbeing to drive the vision, philosophies, and desired behaviours of the Academy whilst leading and mentoring players, staff and parents.
The Boys Head Coach will provide leadership to the Boys Coaching Team consisting of Academy Coaches and training partners, ensuring impactful coaching quality and appropriate training and competition provision for optimal player development.
The Boys Head Coach will be expected to act as Coaching Lead on a small number of players, which will require significant on-court presence, travel to tournaments with relevant players, and leading assigned player development.
There is an expectation with this role to travel to both domestic and international junior and senior tennis tournaments with other members of the LUNTA staff team and our junior tennis players.
Loughborough University is committed to developing staff. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to learn within the Academy, but also utilise skills and experiences of other Loughborough Sport performance and development practitioners to grow and develop.
More detail is provided in the job description and on request. Informal enquiries should be made to Nathan Miller, Academy Manager, at [email protected] .
