Brookside Basics

Steve Smith and Dave Anderson are joined by Brookside teaching pros Aoife Wilson and Brendan Moore for a wide-ranging conversation about coaching culture, player development, and the GreatBase system in action at the Brookside training program. Aoife shares her journey from Ireland to Tyler Junior College and later Alabama, while Brendan traces his path from junior tennis into coaching and eventually to Brookside, where both have built their careers around Steve Roberts and the GreatBase method.
The conversation covers the nuts and bolts of how Brookside teaches the game, from grip, stroke shape, and shadow swings to cone work and observation, as well as the broader themes of all-court tennis, equipment changes, junior competition in the Bay Area, and the value of mentorship for coaches just entering the profession.
