Former professional tennis player Emir Hamzić is still taking hold of the court after shifting into full-time coaching. Through his coaching company, HAMZIC All American Training, the former professional athlete inspires young minds and aspiring tennis professionals to score wins and be the next All-American champion.
Emir Hamzić is a Serbian tennis player who has competed on the pro-circuit and has traveled the world playing ITF futures. Before he was the tennis giant that he is today, Emir was a talented tennis player who, at 17 years old, started coaching part-time to fund his professional career. Three years later, everyone in the world of tennis would know who he was.
Known as much for his attention to detail as to his big serve and aggressive baseline game, the young professional was a rising star. It wasn’t long before he skyrocketed and finally had the attention his talent deserved. At the mere age of 20, Emir was given the title of ‘All-American,’ having won a National Championship playing at the collegiate level.
After his wild success, the brilliant tennis player decided to transition into full-time coaching. He pursued a degree in Exercise Science from Kean University, mainly contributing to his future success. Emir Hamzić’s strong academic background allowed him to specialize in specific physiological demands of tennis players.
“Through my experience as a tennis player and trainer, it was important for me to become college-educated in order to truly understand the biomechanics of athletes, but more importantly of tennis players,” he shares.
Looking to expand what he was learning in the university, Emir Hamzić ventured off to work alongside the world’s most famous tennis coach, Nick Bollettieri. Soon, Emir’s successful coaching efforts would make ripples, and, in the tri-state area where he resided, demand for his unique and tailored services was roaring.
