Meet Our Pro
Entering his fourth season at Tarry Crest, Frank Fanning
brings over 15 years of experience teaching and coaching tennis to adults, children, and college students as well as developing
and coordinating tennis programs. He is a USPTA Certified Tennis Professional who has worked at tennis clubs and resorts
throughout the country, including the prestigious Breakers in Palm Beach, Florida and The Vintage Club in Indian Wells, California,
as well as serving as the men's and women's tennis coach at The College of Mount St. Vincent in Riverdale, New York.
Frank's teaching philosophy is to teach vision awareness techniques to enable the player to develop better timing, better
balance, and better stability. He believes that once a player learns how to "see the ball," the player will
quickly see a dramatic improvement in their game, which in turn makes playing tennis much more fun!  Meet Our Assistant Pro's
