The Elite Academy is the most complete option to improve and develop competition tennis players. This academy is designed specifically for players of a high level who currently have in place a comprehensive training and competition schedule.
A selection of specific drills, tactics and movement patterns will be implemented during the week to challenge and increase player’s knowledge and understanding of the modern game. Our professional coaching team will motivate and support players throughout the week with ongoing feedback and encouragement, to ensure effective communication and player development.
Our Elite academy has a coach player ratio of 1:4
The Sunday afternoon session allows players to meet fellow squad members and to get familiar with the clay courts. It also provides an opportunity for the lead coach to ensure that the academy players have the appropriate level of play.
It is essential to book yourself into the academy in advance.
*A minimum number of 3 players is required for the academy to run, in the case that the minimum is not reached an alternative programme will be put in place based on individual lessons to the value of the appropriate academy.
