MIAMI — Tennis Canada hired top Israeli coach Oded Jacob recently to head its junior development group in British Columbia
“We are fortunate to have hired one of the best coaches in the world to identify talented youngsters in tennis,” said Ryan Clark, chief executive of Tennis BC, who selected Jacob over other top candidate. “Oded will take our youngsters and turn them into international champions. You don’t go out and get a guy of Oded’s talent without having a lofty goal in mind.”
