THE PEOPLE BEHIND OVADE

Meet Selin & Dillon

Every athlete’s path is different, and so is the relationship between an athlete and their coach. Get to know the people behind OVADE and the values, experiences, and purpose that shape the way we coach, mentor, and help athletes grow.

SELIN WADE

Many athletes and families may also know Selin from her collegiate and professional playing career as Selin Ovunc.
Founder • Tennis & Athlete Development
As a former professional tennis player who competed internationally, including at the junior Grand Slam tournaments of Wimbledon and Roland Garros, and later earned All-American honors while competing for Auburn University in the SEC, Selin understands firsthand the dedication, resilience, and discipline required to compete at the highest levels of the game. Those experiences shaped her belief that lasting success is built through intentional development, meaningful relationships, and a commitment to continuous growth.

Today, Selin combines her competitive experience with a passion for teaching, helping athletes of all ages build confidence, strengthen their mindset, refine their skills, and unlock their full potential. She believes every athlete's path is unique and is committed to creating an environment where athletes feel challenged, supported, and empowered to reach their highest potential, both in sport and in life.

DILLON WADE

Founder • Football & Athlete Development
Competing in the SEC at Auburn University, Dillon started every game he played throughout his Auburn career, a testament to the discipline, consistency, and preparation required to perform at one of college football's highest levels.

Today, as a member of the Green Bay Packers, he continues to develop and compete at the highest level of the game, bringing those experiences into the way he coaches, mentors, and develops athletes. His experiences have reinforced a simple belief: talent may open the door, but discipline, preparation, consistency, and mindset determine long-term success.

He is passionate about helping athletes develop strong fundamentals, build confidence, strengthen their mindset, and build the daily habits that lead to lasting success both on and off the field.
OUR PHILOSOPHY

"My goal is to help every athlete build confidence, train with intention, and discover what's possible. I believe the greatest growth happens when athletes are challenged, supported, and empowered to believe in themselves because a strong mindset is the foundation of lasting performance."

Selin Wade

"Talent may open the door, but discipline, preparation, consistency, and mindset determine how far you go. My goal is to help every athlete develop the habits, confidence, and resilience needed to reach their highest potential."

TESTIMONIALS

Trusted by Athletes & Families

The greatest measure of our coaching isn't what we say. It's the impact we've had on the athletes and families we've had the privilege of working with. Their words reflect the care, commitment, and relationships that define our approach to coaching. We're honored to share a few of their reflections.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
More Than Just a Coach

I met Coach Selin at an Auburn tennis camp, and after seeing me struggle during a match, she took the time to work with me one-on-one. That moment led to months of private coaching that completely changed my game. Every lesson had purpose, and she always found a way to challenge me while building my confidence. What stood out most was how much she genuinely cared about me beyond tennis. She helped me enjoy competing again and left a lasting impact far beyond the court.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
A Coach Our Kids Loved

Coach Selin worked with both of our children for over eight months. She helped them develop a love for tennis while preparing them for their first tournament, where they both found success. She took the time to truly get to know each of them, creating lessons that were both fun and challenging. Her patience, knowledge, and ability to connect with young athletes made a lasting difference. We are incredibly grateful for everything she did for our family.

Parent - Jamie A.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Focused on Real Development

Selin is a highly dedicated coach who focuses on real skill development rather than simply hitting balls. Every lesson is structured with purpose and designed to improve technique, confidence, and overall performance. Her attention to detail and ability to explain concepts clearly helped me improve tremendously. I learned so much from working with her and would highly recommend her to any athlete looking to reach the next level.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Building Athletes Beyond the Sport

Working with Coach Selin has been an incredible experience for our family. Our son grew tremendously under her guidance, not only as a tennis player but as a person. She helped him develop confidence, resilience, and a positive mindset while teaching him to compete the right way. He always looked forward to training, and we appreciated the supportive environment she created. We highly recommend her to any family looking for a coach who develops both athletic ability and character.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Developing the Complete Athlete

Coach Wade's training brought an entirely different dynamic to our daughter's development. While Coach Selin strengthened her footwork, strategy, and technical game through her high-level playing and coaching expereicne, what impressed us most was the emphasis on mental performance. Learning to overcome self-pressure and doubt, reset after every point, and compete with confidence helped our daughter become a more confident and complete athlete beyond her technical skills.
