Our coaching team


Peter Blow is an accomplished and highly respected coach with extensive experience and numerous accolades. He has successfully guided players of all ages and skill levels, fostering both achievement and personal growth. His passion for tennis is truly inspiring, and he cultivates an environment where players flourish—valuing the journey as much as the results.

His playing career includes being New Zealand 18s National Champion, achieving a world junior ranking of No. 40, and reaching the Quarter Finals of the Junior Australian Open.
