“I worked with Paul in my capacity as Chef de Mission for the ParalympicsGB team at the London 2012 Paralympic Games. Paul joined the team, as the Sport Team Leader for Wheelchair Tennis 12 months out from the Games. He was a very popular member of the team and developed very strong relationships with everyone including his athletes and support staff as well as the staff at the British Paralympic Association. 

Paul demonstrated strong leadership and communication skills, and when accompanied with an extensive knowledge of high performance sport they make up the perfect ingredients for a first class leader. Paul’s role was to ensure that the wheelchair tennis athletes were best prepared and kept everyone focused throughout the Games, and in my opinion, he most certainly achieved this.

I thoroughly enjoyed working with Paul and I hope I have the opportunity to work with him again.” – Craig Hunter, Chef de Mission, ParalympicsGB

“Paul helped run my tennis charity (The Cliff Richard Tennis Foundation) for over 10 years, and his knowledge, passion and energy made a huge difference to many children’s lives.  I am delighted that Paul has established his own Sports Business Agency, where he will continue to influence change and help raise the profile of tennis and disability sport.  Good luck and keep up the great work.” – Sir Cliff Richard, O.B.E

“The decision to engage Paul Regan Organisation to assist Tennis Auckland and Tennis Northern to develop and implement a membership acquisition and retention strategy for all tennis clubs in the city of Auckland proved to have been a wise one. Paul’s prolific experience within every level of the racquets environment allowed him immediate access to the hearts and minds of those good people running tennis clubs that were created in a world that has changed beyond all measure.

His presentations were impressive – he both challenged and stimulated, opening doors just wide enough for clubs to glimpse what might be possible, whilst holding a mirror to how things actually looked at the moment. Not only was he able to understand and articulate how things could work better in broad overview, he then rolled his sleeves up and showed a number of pilot clubs how they could actually change things at ground level within their clubs. The methodology was logical and ordered, the resources he designed to enable this change a lasting and empowering legacy that could only have come from a lifetime of experience. We will do all that we can to keep him involved with our sport in New Zealand, for this is a consultancy that can actually make a difference.” – David Frank, CEO Tennis Northern Auckland, New Zealand

“Two tennis organisations governing the sport in Auckland, New Zealand, wanted to devise strategies to increase participation across the region. Paul Regan was successful in winning the consultancy and from that point we never looked back. His research and fact-finding was thorough and insightful and he engaged with a wide group of stakeholders in a measured and meaningful way. Our members were enthused to participate in the workshops and endorsed his findings and recommendations. Paul has delivered, and more, on the initial brief and he continues to work remotely with the region to see the project through to implementation. But most importantly – he does it in such an engaging way that makes you want to work with him.”  – Robyn Kiddle, former CEO Tennis Auckland

“2012 was a major year for the Tennis Foundation, with its involvement in the Paralympics and broader engagement in helping to develop tennis for the wider community. Paul, as Team Leader for the Wheelchair tennis team, played a significant role in leading and supporting the team in the run up, and during the Games; in addition, he has been providing valuable support and leadership with the Swansea community project, which is focused on making tennis a more accessible and inclusive sport in the city, and which is already delivering great results.” – Geoff Newton, Executive Director, Tennis Foundation

“Paul’s involvement in the re-opening of Swansea Tennis Centre was a key part of what has become a great success story. Paul has acted as a great mentor and adviser and has worked closely with me to ensure the centre’s future has taken the right direction. Paul is very knowledgeable in his chosen field and would recommend him for his professional approach for achieving results.”– Barry Cawte, General Manager, Swansea Tennis Centre

“In 2013 the Paul Regan Organisation was commissioned to spearhead a membership and participation growth project for the Tennis Auckland and Tennis Northern regions in New Zealand.  Their initial proposal stood out from other applications and their knowledge of the tennis industry was obvious from the outset.  Paul, who led the project, has visited Auckland twice to conduct the associated work on the project and on both occasions he has impressed me with his professionalism, ideas and presentation skills. 

Paul is a tennis man through and through, he is personable, enthusiastic and driven to succeed by helping the tennis fraternity whenever he is in a position to do so.  Paul has been a breath of fresh air to the Auckland tennis scene and I have enjoyed the time we have spent working together on this project immensely.  Working relationships are generally imperative for any project to succeed and Paul certainly earned my respect very quickly and he has become a good friend as a result of our time working together to grow tennis in my home town.” – Mark Lewis, Former Coach to Wimbledon Champion Michael Stich

“As lead partner of British Tennis, we are delighted with the success of the AEGON Schools Tennis programme and the significant difference it has made to delivering tennis in schools in Britain.

In his former role as Head of Education at the Tennis Foundation, it was a pleasure to work with Paul, and the Education team, to support over 1,000,000 children, to gain access to tennis within their primary school.

We’ve been impressed by Paul’s commitment and passion for the programme – it’s been delivered to an extremely high standard and in a manner that reflects not only our brand values but our commitment to supporting communities as part of our corporate social responsibility programme. We’re sure that Paul’s enthusiasm and professionalism will contribute to his future success and we wish him well at the Paul Regan Organisation. – Ian Murray, Head of Sponsorship, AEGON UK

“Paul was instrumental in changing the perception of Schools Tennis and lead a team of enthusiastic professionals to transform the opportunities for teachers and coaches to enhance the provision within our schools across the UK” – Cathie Sabin, President LTA

“I have been working with Paul since August 2013 when I stumbled across PRO as I was in search of some sound tennis business support. I had secured a head coach role at a tennis club and was lacking confidence and was so busy that I didn’t know where to turn for help.
Paul and his team have provided detailed and innovative tennis specific business support, helped increase and improve my coaching business whilst reducing my time on court by providing great leadership and insight.

If there are coaches and clubs that are looking for help in shaping, streamlining or simply growing their coaching/tennis business, you should definitely contact PRO. I needed convincing about employing a ‘consultant’ as it’s not the done thing in tennis, however, I continue to work with Paul as he justified his fees immediately by improving the efficiency and profitability of my business. Thanks for all your support Paul.” – Joanne Trataris, Head Coach, Glan Aber Tennis Club, Chester

“I have worked with Paul for a number of years in his previous roles with both with the Cliff Richard Trail and with the Tennis Foundation.  Paul has done a fantastic job developing and leading the Education team at the Tennis Foundation, and the projects he has spearheaded to transform the schools tennis programme across Britain is one of the most significant and successful developments in the last decade of British tennis. Paul’s professional approach, innovation, and vision have achieved great results and I very much look forwards to now using his PRO services as an important part of our plans to drive Welsh tennis forwards.” – Peter Drew, Chief Executive Officer, Tennis Wales

“Working with paul has been a fantastic investment in developing Diamond Tennis Academy to help us reach our goal of providing quality coaching for all. His precise, professional and passionate approach matches up to our own values. It has meant that the discussions and action plans have been on the same wavelength from the start and has meant valuable positive steps for our business. I look forward to working with Paul again in the future and would highly recommend him.” – Sena Tengey, Director of Tennis, Diamond Tennis Academy
