Raul Cedeno
Raul is a professional coach at Buttonwood.
Raul Cedeno was born in Portoviejo, Ecuador and began playing tennis at the young age of 6. After graduating from college, Raul began his tennis teaching career at the Doral Country Club in Miami, FL. His love of tennis had brought him to teach at some of the most prestigious tennis clubs in South Miami, Courts at the Falls, Royal Palm, and Coco Plum, to name a few. However, the thrill of competition had never left him and it was this passion which inspired Raul to start a traveling team of top junior players from the US, Central America, and South America, known as the ITF.
For 9 years he traveled all over the world with his team, organizing ITF Tournaments in El Salvador, Costa Rica, and Guatemala. For the past three years, Raul has worked as a private coach in the Stuart area. Still enchanted with the sport of tennis, he continues to practice and participate in local events and is currently very happy and appreciative to be part of the tennis staff at Buttonwood Tennis Club.
