Meet Our Coaches

Introduction to Top Performance:

We’re pleased to announce the engagement of Head Pro Coaches, Andres Baca and Nelson Perez, Top Performance Tennis Academy (TPT).  TPT brings with them a rich background of experience, a passion for the sport, and an unwavering dedication to coaching at the highest level.

As highly accomplished players and dedicated coaches, Andres and Nelson have been friends since they were 10 years old, growing up in Venezuela playing at the Casa D’Italia club. They both developed a love for tennis at an early age and played competitively for years until they transitioned to coaching.

TPT has a clear mission and that is to form and educate kids and adults about tennis, teach technique fundamentals, biomechanics, tactics, strategy and more.

We’re looking forward to TPT’s implementation of new ideas, offerings, guidance, and fervour for tennis, as well as their commitment in creating a supportive and inclusive environment where players of all ages and skill levels can thrive and reach new playing heights.

We encourage members to take advantage of the opportunity to meet and work with Nelson and Andres.  Please join us in extending a warm welcome to Nelson and Andres.
