Client Testimonials

"Training with Todd Larkham in Canberra two hours away from my home in Wagga was definitely worth it, as I feel he helped take my game to the next level. This was key in order for me to reach a level good enough to receive a full scholarship at a top 25 US College. I also think his successful background on the pro tour was another bonus, as it helped me quickly trust him and value his great feedback even more.”

“Todd not only coached our two sons but also played a vital role as a mentor and teacher of life skills. His coaching style was first class where he went far and beyond, was innovative and payed attention to details. Our sons’ improvement under Todd’s guidance saw them reaching many highlights and successfully play in US college division one at La Fayette College in Louisiana, winning the Sun Belt Conference and inducted into “the hall of fame” at the University."

"I've worked with Todd on and off for many years and he has helped me immensely. I am very grateful for everything Todd has taught me and helped me with, especially during the last year. While our working relationship has ended, Todd and I will remain friends as he has been a very important person in my life."

I have had the fortune of working with both Todd Larkham and Alun Jones over the course of my tennis development. Alun was my first coach, taking me on at age 6 after my mum had introduced me to the sport. Four years later in 2013, I transitioned into the National Academy program where I was coached primarily by Todd Larkham. Alun still remained involved during this time, working together with Todd through until I moved interstate in late 2018. I feel very fortunate to have both Todd and Alun involved in my tennis journey. They each had their own unique strengths and experiences, and worked together to ensure I was the beneficiary of both their skills sets. I hold an immense amount of respect and appreciate the genuine care they each invested in me. Much of the tennis knowledge and skills I currently use derives from their teachings and early commitment to develop all aspects of my game. Whilst coached by Alun and Todd, we were able to achieve a number of significant results including winning the 12/u and 16/u Australian National Championships and becoming an Australian representative player on five occasions. As a player, but more importantly as a person, Todd and Alun helped me grow. Their authentic care for me as an individual, and persisting when I didn’t make it easy, is what I value most from my time with them. Todd and Alun have unequivocally helped me to be where I am now in my tennis career, and I am forever grateful for the chance to cross paths with them; anyone who does are very blessed and will be helped definitely.

As parents of a child who loves her tennis and has been playing since she was three years old, we can’t be more appreciative of the high quality coaching and overall development and support Todd and Alun have provided over many years.  The commitment they have shown to progressing our daughter’s tennis and the support they have given our little family to navigate the tennis pathway has been nothing short of amazing.  Because of their efforts our daughter is now a student athlete in US College receiving a full tennis and academic scholarship.  Thank you Todd and Alun!!!

Todd was my coach for over 5 years and he was a huge part of my development as a player and also as a person. Thanks to him I developed a much more aggressive and consistent game that could win me matches and earned me a Division 1 US College scholarship. He also facilitated a really positive and competitive training environment which was really important for me as a young player. I feel lucky to have been under his guidance and he is definitely the best coach I have had and will ever have.
