As well a tennis training, there will also be several peer-to-peer tournaments organised where students can put into practice everything they have learned on a daily basis.

The weekly schedule will include:

• 20-40 hours of training a week

The Coaches

The training is directed by certified professionals who have prepared many high-profile tennis players - including Elina Svitolina, Jelena Dokic or Alexandre Lacroix - for the physical and mental challenges of the game.

The Club

The Mouratoglou Tennis Academy was established in 1998 and became the first European organization to facilitate university scholarships for young tennis players.

The training principle at the Mouratoglou Academy is based on the law of effort - that is to say, to achieve your dreams, you first have to make an effort and believe in yourself, only then can you become an artist.

To achieve this objective, the Mouratoglou organizers understand that you can not only focus on teaching tennis to the students. They also promote weekends of integration, where challenges are set in the water, in the forest or in the mountains. In addition, mental workshops, theatre classes and other creative activities are also arranged.
