Background

About Gary Needelman

I hold more than 25 years experience in all facets of sports, primarily coaching and program/facility management with established careers in sports media relations and journalism as well. My current focus is winning an NCAA Division I National Title with the USF Bulls Men's Tennis Team and sending our guys off to enjoy long and prosperous professional tennis careers with a college degree in hand. My accomplishments include building from scratch the largest private club summer tennis camp in the Tampa Bay area and developing a supplemental full-day sports camp at the same location. I revitalized through sound management two floundering tennis facilities and trained players who went on to win professional, collegiate and sectional championships. I've helped more than 30 players earn college athletic scholarships in multiple sports. I've coached on the recreational, Division I college and professional levels of tennis. I've been featured numerous times in various trade magazines. For more than 10 years I volunteered weekly as a reading/writing tutor at a local elementary school and hosted annual free tennis clinics at many local schools.
