What Clients Have Said:

“Tim 'demystified' the college recruitment process for us. His knowledge about the college game and familiarity with coaches and teams allowed us to easily identify those schools that were appropriate choices for our daughter in light of her academic interests and her desire to play collegiate tennis. With Tim's guidance and direction, we avoided wasting time and energy looking at schools that were not a good fit for her. In the end, she received several scholarship offers from Division I schools, but decided to attend Yale University. I can honestly say that working with Tim was a pleasure.”

—Pamela Dashiell, Boston, MA

"Tim's integrity, grasp of the process as well as his relationships with coaches (who, time and time again, expressed their respect for him) provided instant credibility for Casey and simplified the process immensely. Tim was by far the most valuable consulting resource we encountered, including all of Casey's high school guidance counselors."

—Michael Simchik, Rye, NH

"I cannot ovrestate the value of the DTS College Selection Assistance Program. So much of the process is patience and steadfastness as the pieces of all the team puzzles move into place. It was invaluable to know how the coaches size up and rank the players, how player and coach decisions change the landscape (and to be aware of those changes!). I am thrilled with the outcome."

—David Reich, Westfield, NJ

"We just wanted to express our personal thanks for your help over the past year.  Your integrity, graciousness and work ethic were beyond our expectations." 

—Lenore and Cliff Berck, Roslyn, NY

"We wanted to thank you so much for all of your efforts with our daughter this past year.  We know that she would not have ended up at Williams (her first choice!!) without your help.  As frantic as we may have felt at times, you always kept us calm and it made it so much easier for all of us." 

—The Schneidmans, Medfield, MA

"Donovan Tennis Strategies helped us immensely with the college selection process for my son. Tim saved us time, energy, and effort. We were able to cut down our list of possible schools to a few very feasible choices, and by the time we made our visits we knew exactly what we were looking for. We recommend him highly."

—Dr. Beth Schiff, Evanston, IL  

"Tim was always honest and interested in providing a service which guides both the player and the parents through the letter writing process, evaluating the player's list of colleges, suggesting certain colleges that "fit" the player's ability and needs, and finally selecting a school.  Tim's service was always professional and rendered in a positive and timely manner.  His vast network of contacts and experiences proved to be a great asset to our son."
