Play to Win continues to grow its presence in the tennis arena, particularly among high school–age players on both the boys’ and girls’ sides. The program has seen increasing momentum in recent years, building a strong footprint with American students as well as international players.
“Our success within the tennis community has been with both American students as well as many across the pond in the UK” said Gary Cohn, the Founder of Play to Win. He continues, “we strongly believe the interest in Tennis extends well beyond the US and UK and would include South Africa, Australia, and other tennis hotspots.”
As part of that continued expansion, Play to Win has added experienced coach James Preston, whose background aligns closely with the organization’s focus on using sport to help guide academic and college placement opportunities.

For nearly twenty years, Coach Preston has built a successful track record of guiding players into college tennis and beyond into the professional game. A Cornwall, England native, his involvement with the Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) and experience playing college tennis in the United States provide Play to Win and its clients with a pathway to the highest levels of college tennis.
“James’ reputation with college coaches throughout the US and his interpersonal skills with his clients, really gets me excited in terms of how far we can go with tennis. The approach we have always taken here at PTW will not change for tennis as it falls right in line with James’ personal philosophy. We certainly welcome you to Contact Us for any additional information” adds Jonathan Holt, Play to Win’s Chief Operating Officer.
Coach Preston will be given significant latitude in terms of the geographical reach of clients and the process for success. As James so clearly puts it, “The greatest value lies in working closely with players and their families, preparing young people to reach great academic standards whilst competing at the highest level. The thrill lies in developing their skills, discipline, and confidence to succeed in life well after their tennis days are over.”
“With James Preston as Director of Tennis and Recruiting Consultant, Play to Win expects to drive the tennis side of the equation with informed, honest guidance at every stage of the process. We will continue to set families up for long-term success, both academically and professionally – as we have for fifteen years” concludes Cohn.
