Taking lessons with Rod has definitely improved my game. He's helped me a lot, particularly with footwork, movement and rhythm. He's up to date with trends in coaching and used video analysis with me. I can tell Rod is passionate about tennis, and I would highly recommend him if you are truly passionate about the improvement process.

Rod is amazing and I'm glad to have found him. He's fun, knowledgeable, encouraging, insightful, patient and more. I've learned a lot and Rod does an excellent job not only verbally explaining the techniques, but also with utilizing drills that bring the techniques to life and help my body incorporate them. In sum, if you're looking to improve your game, learn tennis, and have a great time while doing so, look no further.

Myself, Giancarlo Battaglia has been taking lessons from Rod Dowell since I was 13 years old. Ever since I began Tennis at the age of 6, I have always had difficulty improving my game, attitude, and needed much help. If it weren’t for Rod, I probably would not be at where I am. He was always there for me during the hard times and good times. Besides being on court going over the different mechanics, he helped me mentally become stronger than any of my opponents. Usually after every match and tournament, Rod and I would go over my mistakes with taped matches that my father would have filmed. With this team that I have, I moved onto become a very successful college player. Finishing my freshman year at Pacific University where I received a college grant for my commitment to the team and most importantly to the college. We finished 2nd in the NorthWest Conference where this has been one of the greatest accomplishments of the teams history at Pacific University. Also, I received Second Team All-Northwest Conference player of the year. Following sophomore year, the team finished 4th in conference. We had a difficult year as a whole but that didn’t stop us from pursuing to work harder that year. At the end of the year, I received 1st team all Northwest Conference player. At the end of my junior year, the team as a whole reached 2nd place in the Northwest Conference championships. We reached the final but lost unfortunately. At the end of the season, I once again qualified to become 1st team all Northwest Conference player. Rod Dowell is an excellent coach and a great person. He knows the game and has the skills to make anyone an elite player on the court. He truly is the best coach I have ever had. I recommend Mr. Dowell without any hesitation.
