My Son, Weichen, started playing tennis at 4 years old, but we couldn’t see any real progress until he started with Jack. He was with him for a year and 10 months and there has been tremendous improvement and spectacular changes from beginner to club champion and LTA mini tournament champion. Weichen absolutely loves tennis and enjoys every minute of the coaching session. It’s such a shame that Jack has left Exeter but we still hope to have some coaching from Jack again. I would highly recommend Jack to anyone who wants to play tennis to a performance level and meanwhile enjoy it.

Jack has been our head university coach for the last three years. Despite having 9 teams to coach Jack managed to tailor coaching to individual and really helped us all improve our game. On a personnel level, he has always been able to support me both during my university matches and in national level tournaments by drawing on his own experiences as a top player to understand what would benefit me in each situation

Jack is a class act. His drive and passion for the game of tennis is second to none. He has helped me both as a player and as a coach. Helping me as a player I felt Jack is very well educated in tennis. He has a great insight to the game and is able to communicate that understanding very effectively to players. He will go over and above to help his players achieve their goals and constantly push to get the best out of their tennis games. He has fantastic energy on and off the court that transcends to his players. He creates a really great tennis environment! As a coach Jack helped me to see how valuable it is to be well organized for sessions. Jack provides a variety of drills, games and exercises so that every type of player is catered for whilst still being able to help them improve. Go get on the court with Jack today!

Jack has been coaching me for 3 years and throughout he has been reliable, committed and a great role model for me and the younger players around us. He has bought my game and technique on massively so that I am able to compete and train at higher levels. As well as this he still plays and competes himself so can relate to the tougher moments that you can experience whilst playing the sport.
Jessica Hill
Jack has been coaching my daughter for 3 years now, his enthusiasm, patience and knowledge of the game is outstanding. He has been so flexible with the demands that being a teenager brings and fully understands the emotional part of competing since he still competes himself. My daughter has improved greatly not only with her technical ability but Jack has taught her to be confident with her ability. Would highly recommend him.”
Emma Hillparent of player Jessica Hill:

Hi, my name is Jack Large. I started playing tennis at the age of 7 and grew up playing on the clay in Germany. Playing competitively in national and a couple of international events I moved back to the UK where I trained at Bath tennis academy before going on to study at the University of Exeter.
Whilst at Exeter I played for and captained the first team. Whilst I was also on the committee for three years I helped develop and coach the student program whilst undergoing my LTA level 3 qualification which also allowed me to assist and help out with the junior performance program at the centre.
