A book that redefines club coaching – and truly speaks to you as a coach.

Coming this May: “Success Compass for Tennis Coaches – Targeted Club Training in Theory & Practice” – a book like no other.

Martin Kares – coach, former competitive player, and founder of Tennistraining Online – shares not just solid, field-tested knowledge for effective club coaching, but also invites you into his personal story: from rising talent and aspiring pro to passionate coach with lessons learned the hard way.

This is not a dry manual. It’s an honest, inspiring, and often humorous look behind the scenes of a tennis life – filled with real insights, relatable moments, and practical guidance for coaches who want to make a real difference.

What makes this book truly unique?

Every single one of the 250+ drills, games and training ideas is supported by a corresponding video on Tennistraining Online. That means everything you read, you’ll also see – explained, demonstrated, and enhanced with variations and exclusive bonus content available only through the book.

What sets this book apart:

It’s personal, it’s practical, and it blends written knowledge with direct video access like no other tennis book has before.
When you purchase the book, you’ll automatically receive access to a special book membership on Tennistraining Online, which unlocks all related videos. Premium members already have full access included.

The book will be available in German only – as a printed edition, an eBook, and an Audible audiobook (theory part only). The theory and practice sections will also be available separately through the platform.
The exact release date will be announced in early May.

If you want to be more than just an instructor – if you want to inspire, guide and grow – this book is for you.

Stay tuned and be among the first to know when it launches.

Best regards,

Martin from Tennistraining Online
