What I love about Tennis?
I loved the intensity of competing as a player and all the life opportunities that Tennis has provided such as character building, world travel and helping me to build a career. I’d like to share these opportunities and help as many players as possible to develop to their full potential as both players and as people.

Nick at GT STATS have been working with Thanasi Kokkinakis and his team over the Australian 21/22 Summer. In that time, Thanasi has improved his ATP ranking from 171 to 103, won his first ATP Tour title at the Adelaide International, and won his first Grand Slam final at the Australian Open.
Only a small part of GT’s work with Thanasi is on upcoming opponents. The majority of what GT does for “Team Thanasi” is on match and tournament reviews, which help Thanasi’s coaching team target areas for practice prior to upcoming matches and tournaments.
In this recorded webinar we cover:
  • How GT is changing Thanasi’s view of stats and analytics from what is shown on TV to information relevant to his game.
  • Why GT discusses rally length and patterns of play in reviews, rather than errors, winners and points won on 1st serve.
  • How GT’s work with Thanasi can be related to Voyager players.
  • A parent’s role in assisting player and coach with analytics recording straight from the match court.

GT will be filming matches in week 6 and 7 of term 1 for academy players at SOP and at future Voyager events.

For match video bookings please contact Nick directly at nick@gtstats.net. Nick will be happy to discuss any questions you may have about GT’s products on the day.

Voyager encourages players/parents to establish a GT STATS subscription ($120/year or $45/quarter). A GT STATS subscription complements our coaching program and provides a link between the match court and the training court through the GT STATS app.

Our mission is to a deliver world class tennis program and to support our athletes, enabling them to achieve their full potential on and off the court.

The Voyager webinar series provides tennis insights from industry experts on matchplay strategy, physical training, injury prevention, sports psychology, US College Guidance, mentoring and parent education.
