Garry Byrnes — Profile
Tennis has been a cornerstone of my family's involvement for a significant period. My coaching portfolio includes state, national, and world-ranked players, and I am well-versed in working with beginners, intermediate, and advanced players alike.
I had a coaching tenure spanning 12 years for the McDonald's squad. This involved coaching advanced kids from all clubs in an area under my direction. I possess a wealth of experience in guiding players of varying skill levels.
As a junior, I held the prestigious #1 junior ranking; I was an active member of the Victoria Junior State Squad for four years. I was a member of the winning State Grade Pennant Team and 18 years as grade 1, number 1 Vic Pennant Player.
Noteworthy achievements include my son Daniel's ascent to the #1 U18 junior ranking and representing Victoria in the Linton Cup. Furthermore, Daniel played a pivotal role as the #1 player for Oklahoma State University USA, securing All-American honours and placing among the top 20 players in America.
Similarly, son Nathan achieved the #1 U16 junior ranking and represented Victoria in the Reid Cup. His journey continued as an Oklahoma State (USA) Division 1 player.
Both Daniel and Nathan attained world rankings before encountering setbacks due to injuries.
