Camp detailsRobin Goodman
Robin is the Head Coach of University of Missouri Women's Tennis. Before Columbia he was Associate Head Coach at Tennessee, and spent five seasons as Head Men's Coach at the University of the Pacific, taking the program from No. 250 to the national top 50 and earning WCC Coach of the Year.
The academy runs on the same idea as his college teams: who you are every day is who you will be when it matters.
About the academyHow we coach
- Every player leaves better. Development comes before results.
- One standard, many approaches. Players are treated equally, not identically.
- Practice is harder than matches, so matches feel familiar.
- Character first. Effort and attitude are coached like technique.
Where we play
Programs run at the Green Tennis Center on the University of Missouri campus, home to the only indoor tennis courts in Boone County. That means no rain-outs and no winter break in your training.
Programming begins on October 18, 2026.
