Coach Brent Wellman Junior Program Director/USTA High-Performance Coach.
Brent is not only a Coach’s coach but a player’s coach as well. Coach Wellman has the unique ability to work with all age groups and has concentrated his passions to Educate, Enrich and Encourage (3E’s).
A process is involved in becoming a Division I player or when shooting for professional ranks and that is a path Coach Brent is quite familiar with. This “process” is what Coach Brent is passionate about and enjoys combining knowledge, and experience using both “Old School” and ‘Modern Coaching methods. Coach Brent has helped over a 100 players reach College scholarships by using video analysis and college player videos. Coach Brent enjoys helping players go down the serious path of competitive tennis in a positive way!
Brent has worked with and played a successful role in the development of numerous professional athletes in both tennis and basketball…
Tell us about Brent Wellman Junior Tennis Director of Delray Champions Junior Tennis & High Performance – what should we know?
I direct the Delray Champions Junior Program at the Delray Tennis Center off of Atlantic Avenue. What separates our program from the rest is stroke efficiency and attention to details. Little things truly matter! Fortunately, I’ve been mentored by some high-level coaches in both basketball and tennis. In tennis working with Steve Smith and Vic Braden was like being in tennis classroom held on the court. Tennis is a game of skill and it’s very important you learn the skills, Sometimes coaches fool students into thinking they just to have fun and hit some balls and maybe eventually you will become a top tournament player. Don’t get me wrong, recreation tennis is fine. But if you want to be a competitive player don’t be fooled by coaches who don’t help young players transition from an inefficient technique. Becoming a tournament player isn’t everyone’s goal, but if you want to learn to hit the ball better, we want to help you!
