Since launching in 2024, we’ve proudly established ourselves as the first Australian talent management agency dedicated exclusively to elite junior female tennis athletes. Our client roster features some of the nation’s top-performing junior athletes, who are already achieving standout results on the national and international stage.

Our core philosophy drives everything we do: we go to extraordinary lengths to ensure every detail is attended to. We’re across everything and anything, as a team, all the time. No opportunity goes unexplored. No detail is overlooked. Nothing is ever too much trouble.

Today, we are proud to announce a new and strategic partnership with The Ark (Haberfield), establishing a premier high-performance training base to support the long-term development of Australia’s future tennis stars.

This partnership will officially commence from Term 3, 2025, and represents a significant investment in creating a professional, sustainable, and athlete-first environment for elite tennis development.

At the same time, Nick Evans Talent Management, in its current form, will rebrand to Nick Evans Tennis. This new identity reflects our sharpened focus on performance coaching and high-performance tennis development. Importantly, Nick Evans Talent Management will now operate as a separate entity under new leadership, with a renewed focus on talent procurement, athlete representation, and long-term athlete support services.

The Ark – A Vision Realised

What sets The Ark apart isn’t just its state-of-the-art facilities, but the visionary leadership that brought it to life. Under the stewardship of Craig and Stephanie Williams, The Ark has become more than just a training venue — it is a purpose-built sanctuary for elite tennis development. Every element, from surface to recovery, has been thoughtfully designed with the high-performance athlete in mind. Craig And Stephanie’s vision for The Ark is both ambitious and inspiring: to create a one-of-a-kind environment that supports the complete development of world-class tennis players. His unwavering dedication and passion for the sport are unmatched, and together with Stephanie, they lead with integrity, heart, and an unrelenting commitment to excellence. This partnership represents the meeting of aligned visions — and a shared belief that with the right people, environment, and support, the next generation of Australian tennis champions can be built right here.
