The Tennis Parent's Bible is comprehensive reference "go to" guide for problem solving. This inspirational book contains many different styles of instructional writing including narration, tales of profound wisdom and motivational stories full of deep insight. The Tennis Parent's Bible addresses the importance of fundamental stroke production, nutrition, physiology, proper equipment and off-court training, but it is not intended to be a manual for such topics.

The book sections are designed to be read in any order, in many different settings and independently of each other. This stand out, organizational manual is designed to assist parents and coaches through the mental and emotional complexities of raising a world class young adult through the game of tennis. Included are foundation essentials, blunders and cures, common and not so common questions and answers, difficult problems and their solutions. As a bonus, a customized evaluation is included. The book concludes with a list of invaluable tennis resources.

Billy Martin, UCLA Men's Tennis Coach

"Frank Giampaolo has been a featured speaker at our Quiksilver/Roxy National Junior tournament many times over the past eight years. His seminars are well attended by the parents/players/coaches, and his interactive style allows for open discussion. This is an important difference between Frank and almost ANY other 'expert' on tennis and tennis parenting: Frank knows there is not a one-size-fits-all approach! His candor and ability to tailor his techniques to the individual personalities (and how to determine which personality we're dealing with) is spot-on. As a professional counselor myself, I have the highest respect for his accuracy and student-centeredness in dealing with individual and family issues in the athletic setting. I highly encourage everyone to hear him speak and find out why he is so successful."
Annette Broersma, M.S Las Vegas, Nevada (Organizer of the Quiksilver/Roxy and Dunlop Junior Championships (Level 3); and College Sports Placement Counselor)
