Rafa Academy

"The Rafa Nadal Academy wasn't conceived with the children of poor parents in mind. One year at the private school, including tennis training, costs 56,000 euros." [commentary of Rafa interviewer not a statement from the Rafa academy]

VAMOS RAFA !

There must be scholarships available for some, like at IMG. Right ?

Game on v. Tipsarevic Tennis Academy.

Can TTA spend a few bucks getting a decent translation if they're going to make an English web site. Something was lost in translation, I hope:

"...and to prepare them for a professional level of the "white sport"."



"you love tennis, if you want to make the first tennis steps or if you just want to become a champion, come and join our team.,

Yeh, I just want to become a champion. No big deal. How many days does it take ? I have other things to do this week.

Hey, poor kids can always join the Nick Kyrgios tennis academy. All you need is a basketball and an attitude.

Is it true that a year in Nadal's Academy is 56K euros?

 

[octobrina10]

Is it true that a year in Nadal's Academy is 56K euros?

Yes, according to CNN. But Rafa's academy is not the most expensive academy in the world. For example, Nick Bollettieri's academy is 22% more expensive than Rafa's academy.
CNN, October 18, 2016:
¤¤ - The Rafa Nadal Academy charges $62,000 (€56,000) a year for budding tennis pros. That includes tennis training (€26,500), accommodation and food (€19,000) and enrollment at an American International School (€10,500).
- A similar program at the recently opened Mouratoglou Tennis Academy in Nice, France will set you back $60,000 (€54,250) a year.
- The IMG Academy in Florida founded by Nick Bollettieri charges $75,900 for tennis training and private tuition at high school age. ¤¤

22% rebate but while offering higher quality learning, training and facilities. What a generous human.

Roger:
“I'm really here to honour the great man, Rafa. I think it's wonderful that he's taken this journey on to give the kids something back,” Federer said. “I've been around the game 17 years. I've seen a lot of hard workers and inspiring players, but you've been the one in my opinion who has been the most inspiring and most influential and made me the player I am today. Because you're left-handed, because of your spin, because of the intensity you bring to the court, I had to re-invent and re-work my game entirely. And that's because of the person you are and how much you've trained.”

“I've seen you prepare for tournaments and practices the same way, which I can't do, because my mind doesn't allow me to, I can't prepare for matches and practice this long. We're completely different when it comes to this,” Federer said. “I admire everything and how you do it, and I hope you can still do it for many more years to come. I really wish you good health. I think it's of the utmost importance.”

"I just think Rafa's a good role model. A lot of kids look up to Rafa.
"A lot of kids think Rafa is a cool guy who's got this special flair."
"Maybe it's because of how Rafa is, how he looks, where he comes from, how he plays."
"Rafa is the full package as a global tennis superstar. He goes beyond our sport."

 

[Tennease]

So Roger is willing to reinvent and rework his entire game to adapt to modern top spin baseline rally game.

So why doesn't Nadal reinvent and rework his game to adapt to indoor game so that he can win at least 1 WTF?

Given a choice between your interpretation of Rafa's game and Federer's interpretation of Rafa's game I think I'll file yours in the bin.

It's only 26,500 Euro/year if you sleep on the street outside and if you pass on the academics. Free airport transfer !

At the Tipsy academy you must take at least one credit of Russian Literature.

Robin Hood was a hero. What a noble thing for Rafa to do.

Robin Hood is said to be an incredibly handsome man, clothed in garments of Lincoln green, fighting and outwitting the evil Sheriff of Nottingham.

Good comparison.

King Rafa inaugurates Nadal Tennis School in India
(Reuters)

SHERINE PAUL | Sun, 17 Oct 2010-11:35pm , Mumbai , DNA
The center court was inaugurated at 9.30am following which he interacted with a few children from the school and played tennis with them.

World No. 1 Rafael Nadal arrived in India late on Saturday night and inaugurated the Nadal Tennis School at the Anantapur Sports Village in Andhra Pradesh on Sunday. The tennis star quietly slipped in to the country unnoticed. The Spaniard was supposed to be in India for three days but had to cut short his trip after missing a flight and spent only a day at his newly-inaugurated academy set up in collaboration with Fundacion Vincente Ferrer (FVF), the Spanish arm of the Rural Development Trust (RDT), an Anantapur-based NGO.

He arrived in Bangalore late on Saturday night and drove down to Anantapur. The center court was inaugurated at 9.30am following which he interacted with a few children from the school and played tennis with them.

District collector of Anantapur Dr B Janardhan Reddy told DNA, “I had a chance meeting with him as I was close to the stadium and I even got to hit a few balls with him.”

The academy currently has three clay courts while plans are on to expand the place. He was accompanied by his mother Ana Maria Parera. Rafa will return home and get some much needed rest before the season-ending London Masters starting November 21.
