As a beginner, coaches can be the springboard of knowledge, providing you with key insight into areas otherwise unbeknowns to you as an amateur. As a result, skills improved upon and knowledge gained will be experienced much quicker than you would otherwise without one.
A coach can also help players master the skills of the game. Sure, players can learn these skills on their own or watching a specific YouTube channel, however, without a second eye of expertise and receiving direct feedback, the learning curve and rate of improvement greatly diminishes.

With that said, coaches can not only help players develop strategies for dealing with the pressure of competition but they can also teach players how to stay focused and maintain a positive attitude, even when things don’t go their way.
Incomparable to the physical demands of the game, improving one’s mental game is arguably the greatest competitive edge a player can prioritise. Again, a coach can help with that!
Other benefits of having a coach include but are certainly not limited to increasing player confidence, both on and off the court, helping with goal-setting, providing a competitive edge, and ultimately enhancing the overall enjoyment of the game via progress made and camaraderie.
