Parkes Phoenix

Our Gal – Helen Magill

November 4, 2016 By editor

Helen Magill

How long have you lived in Parkes? I’ve lived in Parkes all my life.

What do you enjoy the most about living in Parkes? I love the galvanising community spirit and the freedom of country life.

What do you do for work? I am a professional tennis coach in Parkes, which I’ve been doing for 33 years, and a Coach Mentor for Tennis Australia

What do you enjoy most about your work? Every day I have interaction in young people’s lives and see them grow and develop. I get most pleasure out of seeing the happy faces on children when they work hard and enjoy their time on court with me.

What makes your day? People smiling and being kind to each other – it’s not hard.

How do you like your coffee? Skim Latte

Where would your dream holiday be? Anywhere in the world with my husband and two children without mobile reception.
