My Story

The fastest growing
Tennis club

My journey began in 1989, without a clear vision for the future but with a deep desire to make a difference. At that time, I had no idea that the Robinson Tennis Academy would become the platform through which I could transform lives. This wasn’t about me or personal success; it was about helping others realize their own potential. I believe that God placed a calling in me, something I call the One Kid Journey. Each child is unique, created with their own gifts and talents.

The One Kid Approach is about taking a child who may feel like they have no purpose or direction and showing them that they have the power to become something extraordinary. Tennis is our vehicle—it might not make every child a professional athlete, but it can ignite the confidence and drive needed to pursue any dream. Whether they go on to become writers, doctors, lawyers, or scientists, the lesson is the same: believe in yourself. This journey is about making every kid a star in their own way, proving that with the right mindset and encouragement, anyone can achieve greatness.

 

“The One Kid Approach” – Because every child deserves to believe in the power of their own story.

Our History

Over the years, the Robinson Tennis Academy has seen countless young people transform their lives, both on and off the court. From students who came to us shy and uncertain to those now leading in various fields, the Academy has been a testament to the power of self-belief and perseverance. For over three decades, our history has been one of unwavering dedication to the One Kid Approach, proving that every child deserves to believe in the power of their own story.

Mission

Our mission at Robinson Tennis Academy is to empower young people to believe in their own potential and to unlock their unique gifts. Through our One Kid Approach, we strive to build self-confidence, resilience, and purpose, using tennis as a platform to inspire greatness. We aim to create an environment where each child learns not only the fundamentals of the game but also the fundamentals of life—encouraging them to pursue their dreams, regardless of where their paths may lead. Our goal is to make every student realize they are capable of achieving extraordinary things.

Value

At the core of Robinson Tennis Academy is the belief that every child is valuable and capable of success. Our One Kid Approach emphasizes respect, encouragement, and personal growth. We value the individuality of each student, recognizing that their journey is their own, and we are here to help them realize their potential. Our Academy is built on integrity, dedication, and an unwavering commitment to empowering young people. By fostering self-belief and resilience, we hope to instill a lifelong love for learning, both on and off the court, and to make a lasting impact on each child’s life
