Testimonials for Roger Rasheed
“I really enjoyed every minute I spent with Roger. I love his company. He’s a great guy to have around and he’s really been a pleasure to work with. He’s worked harder than any other coach that I’ve ever trained with. I think quite often we both have the same ideas going through our minds when we’re out there. We speak a lot off the court about what I’m feeling on the court and it’s really paid off well.”
LLEYTON HEWITT, FORMER WORLD #1 TENNIS PLAYER
“For me Roger changed the way I approached the game of tennis. Roger showed me what
I needed to do off the court as well as on the court. Whenever I stepped out for a match I felt I was physically and mentally prepared and with Roger I achieved my highest career ranking and was able to beat some of the best players in the world. Thank you Roger.”
