Stronger skills. Greater trust under pressure. Clear support when challenges arise. Thatโ€™s the power of working toward the same goal.

๐Ÿค Align your team around one vision.
๐Ÿง  Practice your mental reset during training.
๐Ÿ”ฅ Turn setbacks into lessons and action.
๐ŸŽฏ Use simple, consistent cues under pressure.

Special thanks to Coach @derekport, @vdmtennis Van Der Meer Tennis Academy Co-Director and coach of @isha_manchala2012 โ€”the 2026 Wimbledon Girlsโ€™ 14-and-Under Singles Champion and first American to win the titleโ€”for joining this interview and sharing his valuable knowledge and insights. ๐ŸŽพ

Isha entered Wimbledon as the worldโ€™s No. 1 UTR-rated girlsโ€™ 14-and-under playerโ€”a remarkable achievement.

Itโ€™s a pleasure working alongside Derek to support Dylan Jaenโ€™s development, bringing together on-court coaching and high-performance mental training to help him PLAY NEXT LEVEL. ๐Ÿ’›
