For Coaches
Teaching coaches hear what players won't say to club management. You know when students are quietly looking for somewhere else to play. You see the gap between what clubs promise and what the court actually looks like. That intelligence is critical. The Player Voice collects it, benchmarks it against what clubs and players are saying, and delivers it to the organizations making decisions about the tennis experience. Take the 2026 Annual Survey and put the coaching perspective on the record. It takes only a few minutes and you also get entered to win a $100 Tennis Warehouse gift card.
Take the 7 minute Survey →The gap no one's talking about
You know when a student is unhappy before the club does. You hear which programs aren't working. You see firsthand which players are quietly considering leaving. And you know why. None of that makes it into the decisions clubs and brands are making right now.
The Player Voice is changing that. The coach perspective is a formal, independently weighted element of our national research program — alongside the player survey and the club survey. Three lenses on the same experience. The picture that emerges is something no single-audience study can produce.
Without the coach voice, that picture has a corner missing. Your perspective is what completes it.
The Coach Survey — Coming Soon
The Coach Survey is in development. When it launches, it will cover:
What you consistently observe players wanting that clubs aren't delivering
Where you see the gap between what clubs think they provide and what players actually experience
Which program formats work and which don't, from the court level
How clubs can better support the teaching coach relationship
What you wish club management understood about your students
Survey responses are completely confidential. Individual answers are never disclosed. We publish aggregate findings only. Your honest perspective is protected.
Join the community now and you'll be among the first contacted when the Coach Survey launches.

01
Selected coach voices from the survey are featured in The Player Voice newsletter and annual State of the Tennis Player report — distributed to players, clubs, and brands across the country. This is independent, third-party visibility that appears in a respected, neutral publication. It's a credential that doesn't come from posting about yourself.
02
The Player Voice community is built from engaged players across the country — people who care about improving their game and finding better instruction. Being visible here, as a thoughtful voice in a trusted publication, is how that introduction gets made naturally.
03
When the Coach Perspective Report publishes, you'll be able to purchase it at a discounted community member rate. It benchmarks teaching experience, student outcomes, and program design against coaches nationwide. Whether you use it to sharpen your practice or as a credential in conversations with clubs and students, it's data you can put to work.
Why your voice changes things
The Player Report
“Poor communication is our number one frustration.”
Players directly experiencing the breakdown — and leaving clubs without ever saying why.
The Coach Observation
“Players consistently miss program and tournament announcements.”
Front-line observation from the middle of the ecosystem — corroborating what players feel but can't articulate.
The Club Self-Assessment
“Our internal communication is adequate or good.”
The self-assessment that contradicts players and coaches — and no spreadsheet can prove alone.
The Triangulation Insight
That intelligence belongs in the data. The Player Voice collects it, benchmarks it against what clubs and players are saying, and delivers it to the organizations making decisions about the coaching profession.
The Coach Perspective Report
The Coach Perspective Report, part of our annual State of the Tennis Player program, covers what teaching coaches across the country observe about player experience, club communication, and program design. It includes:
What front-line coaches say players want that clubs aren't delivering
Which program formats players respond to most positively
How coach-student communication is evolving
Where club management is most aligned with what the court actually looks like, and where they are most out of sync
Available to community members at a discounted rate upon publication. The report is also a formal, citable credential — independent research you can reference when working with clubs, students, or industry organizations.
2026 Annual Survey
It takes 8 to 10 minutes — and every response enters you to win a $100 Tennis Warehouse gift card.
