Game, Set, and Chat
Game, Set, and Chat is the tennis podcast where coaching meets conversation. Join two tennis coaches with extremely different backgrounds as they break down the game in a relaxed, locker-room style atmosphere — covering everything from technique and strategy to mindset, drills, match play, and the little details that can take your tennis to the next level.
Each episode delivers practical tips, coaching tools, funny stories, hot takes, and real-world advice you can actually use on the court.
It’s part tennis lesson, part hangout session — just good tennis talk with coaches who love the game. 🎾
