Tennis academies in Spain? How much do these cost to go to for the summer?

Hrandyrko · 06-21-2009, 02:34 PM

Howdy yall, I'm thinking about maybe next summer, or during my winter break, going to Spain to train at an academy there, either with a private coach or in a small group. Do any of you know how much this would cost per hour? Or how much a package will be? Thanks!

Is your goal to become pro?

Yes. However, if you're going to base your answer on this question, please give me information about academies for those who do not wish to become pro. Thanks bro.

Not to be rude/offensive,
But just because some pros moved to Spain and became pros, doesnt mean it will happen to you. Those players literally moved to Spain and lived there. Not just participated in a summer camp.

Anyways it will cost a lot and youll have to pay for food, water, housing etc.

You don't want to go to a big comercial academy like Sanchez Casal or Bruguera...
There's a real nice small academy in Mallorca (Nadal's...all original coaches and fitness trainers still there!) It's in a rural area not too far from the Palma airport.
Prices (all in) are around 800 euros a month, so it's really cheap, but the training is really personal with a relaxed feeling.
The accomodation is pretty cool, 2-3 boys in a room sharing a bathroom, food is in their restaurant and the place has internet! (Rare in mallorca!)
It's called global tennis team. The website is mostly in Spanish, but if you drop them an email, they'll give you all the info you need.

Babs.

Howdy! What level are you? How intense do you want it to be? Are you looking to compete along with your training? And do you want to board at an academy or simply stay close by?

It's the best idea since slice bread. And well worth it but like anything else...do your homework. Right now Barcelona, Mallorca and Valencia are high on Spain's training academies.

Babs....it appears you & I have a lot in common! Excellent choice and maybe one of the the very BEST in Spain. In my humble opinion of course

Do any of you know of a tennis-academy in the alicante-area that offers tennis lessons for adults? I'm interested in 2-3 hours training with a coach daily, staying for 3-4 days last week of april.
