Entry 53 – Mike Aitken – Changing lives for 36 years

March 15, 2021

Journal entry no.53 brings you Scottish coach, Mike Aitken.

A true Scottish tennis stalwart, who is admired by everyone in the game. One of the most honest and humble coaches you could ever meet. In this episode you will hear how he got into the game, took the brave plunge to go into full-time coaching in the 1980's when he had a secure job as a PE teacher.

Mike was largely responsible for keeping me in the game in my teenage years and I know 1000's of players feel as affectionately as I do about him.

Please share this episode with your tennis friends.
