    Our Family's Tennis Journey ft Greg Gilbert

    Welcome to Season 15 Episode 13 of the ParentingAces Podcast! This week, Tennis Parent Greg Gilbert shares his family's tennis journey from the early days through the college recruiting process. The Junior Tennis Journey is a long and winding road. Greg candidly shares the things his family did well as well as the mistakes they made along the way. Daughter Ariana will be playing college tennis beginning Fall 2026, but her path to college was definitely tricky as she dealt with injury and other challenges. Luckily for Ariana, her parents were committed to learning and growing with her as she pursued her dreams. Greg admits to being on information overload at points through the journey and feeling challenged to manage his expectations of what Ariana could achieve at each stage. Greg also shares details of Ariana's recruiting journey - leading to her full-ride offer at Florida State University - which should prove helpful to those of you with College Tennis in your future. You can reach out to Greg via email at gregsgilbert@yahoo.com - he is more than happy to answer any questions you have!
