I am happy to announce that Pat Hamilton is going to be our Boy's JV Coach this fall. I am extremely excited to have Pat join our staff and wanted to let him introduce himself. I'm looking forward to the start of the boys season very much and can't wait to see both our JV and Varsity in action!

Hi Players and Parents,
My name is Pat Hamilton, and I am excited to be a part of the West Ottawa coaching staff for the Men’s Junior Varsity Tennis Team. I’m confident we will have a great season together, and I am looking forward to helping all players develop their skills to the best of their abilities.
A bit about myself: I’m a Holland native and a West Ottawa grad. My tennis experience includes having played Varsity Doubles my Freshman year, and Singles my Sophomore through Senior year. I was a student at the Nick Bollettieri Tennis Academy in Bradenton, Florida my Junior and Senior years. As a team, we qualified for State my Senior year...what an awesome experience! After high school, I attended Ferris State University’s Professional Tennis Management Program, during which time I also taught tennis lessons to high schoolers.
While life led me down a different career path, and I graduated from Davenport University with a Business Management degree, I have always had a desire to tap back into my love of tennis. This opportunity will allow me to do that, and I’m very excited.
My wife Lisa and I have been married for 19 years, and we have 2 daughters, Adria & Eden. Adria will be a Sophomore at WO, and also played on the Women’s Varsity Tennis Team last year. Eden will be a 6th Grader at Mac Bay this year, and is working hard at developing her tennis game.
I look forward to meeting everyone soon. We will work hard, have fun, and hopefully celebrate many successes along the way!
Best Regards,
Coach Hamilton
