OLLIE RUEPERT

I am in Year 12 at Auckland Grammar School, and started playing tennis around the age of 6.  We were living in Jamaica, and were fortunate to have tennis courts in our complex. After moving to Australia and playing there for a couple of years, we moved to New Zealand, and I started playing at our local club.  I balanced tennis with my love of rugby, and 2 years ago I became an assistant and started training with the team at Kiwi Tennis.

The best part about being a coach is seeing all the kids’ progression as they get older and start to practise more.  I really enjoy helping kids to get better and seeing them have fun at the same time, and look forward to seeing you all out on court soon.
