“Thank you very much Tarek.
You are an "entrepreneur" tennis teacher who grew up professionally in the world of Belgian private tennis clubs.
Your remarks, always remarkably animated, are part of a marketing approach to sports leisure that is more natural in the company than in the associative world that is ours.
Without denying our identity, our federal ecosystem has everything to gain by drawing inspiration from your development models, which link content and the marketing of the services provided to practitioners with relevance.
You were kind enough to bring to our attention the fruit of your experiences because above all you are passionate about tennis.
I am very grateful to you."
Gilles Moretton
President of the F.F.T. (French Tennis Federation)
"I would like to congratulate Tarek for the clarity of the two presentations (How can the teacher be more "pro" in organizing, coaching and selling tennis? And How to attract and retain adult beginners?). Humor, passion, but also knowledge and precision on both themes, he was able to pass on essential information to the teachers present at the national conference at Roland Garros."

"We wanted to involve Tarek to give our development teams another vision of our sport, our clubs, and their attractiveness. The intervention was highly appreciated by our participants, because the topics of reflection related to the positioning of the club, the care given to our customers, and other topics related to the marketing of a club, are not always common in our associative world. This change, while keeping in mind the associative company that is the club in France, is necessary to become attractive again for our citizens. Thanks to Tarek for helping to open our eyes."

"I always knew that my level of tennis was enough to play at a high level, but I was missing a piece of the puzzle - the mental part. I always struggled to know how to play correctly and well in important and stressful moments. of the match, how to manage my emotions. I knew that I had to improve in this part, that is to say, to leave my comfort zone, to ask the right questions and to have a goal and a daily plan to achieve it .
You showed me the way and gave me the keys. I've started to see the improvements and I can't wait to learn even more."

“The AFT “Set to say” day is a day of presentations and exchanges with the clubs. On this occasion, Tarek presented a workshop entitled “the role of the teacher in the promotion of tennis”. We were very satisfied with the content shared but also with the way Tarek presented the module. His knowledge and experience brought real added value to the day. His intervention was unanimously appreciated by the participants.
