The East Coast has tennis in its blood, and there’s no finer setting to play than the historic Chinese Swimming Club in Katong. TAG International Tennis Academy brings its championship-grade coaching to this beloved enclave, serving families and players across the eastern neighbourhoods.
Written by the coaching team at TAG International Tennis Academy and reviewed by Coach XT (Tan Xu Teng), Founder of TAG International and ITF Men’s 35+ World #56. Last updated: August 2026.
Why Train with TAG in Katong
A coaching team the East Coast can trust
TAG’s 11-strong coaching team is ITF, LTA and STA accredited — full-time, vetted professionals, several of them ex-professionals with SEA Games and Davis Cup pedigree. Founder Coach XT is a former ITF World No. 56 and PTR-certified coach who has been shaping players since 2001, with over 10,000 students coached. The bench also includes world-ranked players such as Coach Bo Alburo, ITF Men’s 35+ World #2 and nine-time Singapore Open champion — so booking a tennis coach Singapore families trust through TAG means training within a credential-first system, not with an unverified freelancer. Players who prefer Japanese, ATP Tour–calibre coaching can also explore partner academy Sanwa X Tennis Academy, home to former ATP #378 and All Japan Champion Coach Kento Takeuchi.
