Giselle KawaneSenior Coach

Junior Development Coaching Qualification

I began assistant coaching in 2020 when I was 14 years old, and I started coaching full-time in 2025 at 18.

I coach players at every stage of their tennis journey, from young beginners as little as four years old through to adult players.

I love being able to guide someone through the journey of learning something new. It’s incredibly rewarding to watch players grow in confidence and succeed in skills that I’ve been able to help them develop.

One of my favourite tennis memories is having the opportunity to hit with Ash Barty and also hitting on centre court at the Australian Open through the Evonne Goolagong Cawley Tennis Foundation.

My favourite tennis players are Ash Barty and Evonne Goolagong Cawley.

My favourite racquet brands are Wilson and Yonex. For tennis shoes, I like Adidas or, honestly, anything that looks good on court.

A fun fact about me is that I didn’t even realise tennis was a sport until I started playing when I was seven years old!
