Obadha

I’m an international tennis coach with over 50 years experience, teaching over 50,000 student players. I was taught by the legends Arthur Ashe and Cromwell Manders. I am a  grass roots coach having taught many disadvantaged children, adults and seniors alike. I know the holistic path to constructing a healthy lifestyle in a  prepared environment to attract the supportive  clientele that will contribute the funds needed to build a tennis empire I have trained Prime Minister Tony Blair and the governor of Bermuda John Vereker. Other celebrities I have trained include Gladys Night & the Pips, ‘Shame’ actress Amy Williams and Reggae ambassadors Earl “Chinna” Smith and the late Kojo.

I’m 63 with one beautiful daughter and a sweet & fiery granddaughter. Born and raised in Bermuda, a descendant of St. Kitts and African heritage,  both my parents were legendary athletes. At age 11, I was initiated into African culture at a university in Brooklyn NY, then traveled south and given my first African clothes and name ‘Hakim.’ I was inspired, hearing legendary H. Rap’ Brown speak in Atlanta Georgia USA. 

After local tennis development and international tennis touring, I arrived at Save the World Club charity.  Their primary philosophy is up-cycling and environmental action. It houses twelve social enterprises in Kingston upon the Thames in South-West London, UK. 
I have initiated my repatriation journey to Ghana Africa. I intend to reconnect to my Afrocentric mindset and continue human service to the young and old by up-cycling my energy, knowledge, and wisdom toward world peace.
