THE COACH

Heyyy :)

My Name is Eli Pironkova and I am a Tennis Pro who loves working with tennis enthusiasts of all ages. Thank you so much for stopping by my page.

I started playing tennis at 4 years old. Played my first tennis tournament at 7. Played junior tennis through my teens and professional women’s tennis tournaments in Bulgaria.

I have competed in WCC NCAA Division I college tennis for Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles on a full tennis scholarship for 4 years and have been working as a Tennis Pro ever since I graduated from LMU's Communications School in 2012. I have worked in a high-performance academy in Los Angeles as well as some of the most renowned tennis clubs in the San Francisco Bay Area. Currently, I am back in LA running Eli Pironkova Tennis Juniors   and Eli Pironkova Tennis

My tennis credentials go beyond the college level to the WTA pro circuit where, for years, I served as a traveling coach to my sister Tsvetana Pironkova who has reached a ranking of 31 in the world after defeating Venus Williams and reaching semi-final at Wimbledon in 2010.

Last but not least, tennis has given me: Community, friendships, travel, education, work, healthy lifestyle, confidence and opportunities!

Yours truly,
Coach Eli
