Because of this man, I even have become more fanatic about tennis "Was introduced to the beautiful game of tennis by my parents whom i forever remain grateful for but the appreciation even became bigger when 4 years ago i became acquainted with Mr Harold Mollin. Not only does this man eat, speak and dream tennis, he has played and lived it and his match analysis and player profiles are spot on. Because of this man, I even have become more fanatic about tennis even more and its all thanks to him, my love for the sport has risen to greater heights. Since I left Bangkok last year after 7 great years, I still watch the game and love it with passion but its not the same with my man Harold by my side giving me the blow by blow bits of every game and play. He is a man who would be of great help to any individual with hopes of making it big on the tennis circuit." - Farai Ngoni B. It’s an awesome book... “It’s an awesome book… bought it for my kindle on amazon … great tips and awesome drills. I really like your drills… My student and I do the serve and volley drill she calls it the serve and volley game first to 10 lose at point if you double fault or miss the 1st volley … we also do the 8 deep volley or overheads without allowing any ball to bounce and the volley game half court only start the rally and play it out lose a point if the ball gets over your head … your drill are on point in reinforcing skills and tactical lessons…” - Clay R. Thanks Harold Mollin ! You are the MAN ! “I used to have a weak serve because hitting the ball at below the highest point robbed me of a full swing. This simple but effective point about hitting at the highest point helped me hit stronger serves and slice as well. Thanks Harold Mollin ! You are the MAN !” - Steve Teoh Get the best out of our students... “Although I’ve been coaching for many years, and we all have our own methods to get the best out of our students, I will always look and listen to what my peers are doing. Quite often I will invite a coach to my sessions to look at my students with fresh eyes, i never feel threatened or worried about losing a student, in fact more often than not it makes them feel even more important, and are grateful, I have used many of your quotes thank you Harold, I am planning to visit Bangkok in the future.” - Roger Nadal Tennis
