Meet our staff!

My name is Ben Cechak from Littleton, Colorado. I have been playing tennis since I was six years old, and it has had a large impact on my lifestyle and identity. I enjoy sharing my tennis knowledge and experiences to help those in need of becoming a better athlete both on and off the court. Outside of tennis, I enjoy hanging out with friends and family, playing video games, and watching basketball.

Meet our staff!

My name is Dylan Dodds. I am from Springfield Missouri and I play collegiate tennis for KWU. Tennis has been a big part of my life, and I’m excited to share my love for the game with others. I am passionate about helping players of all levels improve their performance on and off the court. I look forward to helping players and meeting new people. When I’m not on the court, you’ll likely find me hanging out with my friends or family, watching movies, or playing ping pong. I look forward to meeting everyone and getting started!

Happy Labor Day to you all!
