Episode Notes
Welcome to Season 15 Episode 17 of the ParentingAces Podcast! This week, Lisa is joined by Randall Scott, author of THE INNER WAY OF TENNIS.
Randy has had an interesting journey through junior and college tennis that led him to high-performance coaching around the world. While he had struggled tremendously with his emotions on court, Randy recognized that existing tennis programs didn't seem to be addressing the training of the mental side of the game or, at least, not doing it well enough.
Having an interest in Eastern philosophies, Randy started educating himself and developing his own philosophy that he could apply to tennis then teach to the students he was coaching.
It took Randy almost 30 years to feel he had developed his Inner Way philosophy to a point it was ready to be put into book form. Informed by Timothy Galway's THE INNER GAME OF TENNIS, he felt the existing methodologies were missing some fundamental issues he was seeing repeatedly on the court. He wanted to help players recognize then correct them long term. After reading his book, I believe Randy has achieved his goal.
