Testimonials

"After completing a unique four year degree in Professional Tennis Management, Steve Roberts continued his tennis education by immersing his energies into the tennis content that we have gathered. To make an understatement, Steve loves tennis and is dedicated to having students learn efficient skill sets." 

- Steve Smith, GreatBase Tennis Founder, Leading Tennis Educator

"Steve Roberts can really teach tennis, preparing his students with strong fundamentals that give them options to play all over the court."

- Mat Cloer , USTA Pro Coach of Macki Mcdonald ATP high #57, and Danielle  Collins WTA high #23

"We have 3 three kids who love to play tennis, and especially love to work on their games with steve roberts and his team at brookside. At Brookside there is a low player to pro ratio which allows for a ton of individual and relentless attention to proper technique and the right way to play the game. And if you play with proper technique and the right way the game becomes tremendously rewarding.

Many/ most coaches do not have the patience or desire to pay meticulous attention to detail. Allowing a kid to play with flawed mechanics  or a particular way may result in more victories in the younger age groups, but will most likely result in frustration and unfulfilled potential in the long run. Steve knows this and always has the long term interest of the kid in mind.

We highly recommend steve and his team to any kid looking to get the most out of his/her game. My kids have improved a ton under his tutelage."

"Our son Koshin started going to brookside club from july 2020. Steve Roberts runs their junior tennis program. This is the most complete tennis program I have seen in the bay area. Unlike many other programs in the area, not just technique, but fitness, yoga, mental strengthening, endurance, discipline. He brings in experts in each of these traits. Koshin was a 5 utr when he started. In less than 1 year he moved to an 8 UTR. Coach Steve is personally available on call/text almost every day. He follows up on every student in his program personally and keeps parents up to date. He also comes to watch his kids in local tournaments when available and also accompanies players at major national tournaments. Apart from all of this, he also maintains high standards on behavior, honesty, and integrity. I am very impressed with the way Steve runs the program. We have recommended players and everybody who has joined has progressed tremendously."
