It seems like each coach knows his strengths and areas where he needs more work. The Academy has provided very personalized attention and a lot of specific feedback. They send coaching tips and updates, via email, to my son and to us (his parents), so we can get an idea of what he is working on too! Since he started the Academy I have noticed a dramatic increase in his interest, dedication and motivation - and big improvements in his play. - Academy Parent
Work
 
 

While players will be participating in various drills, match days and other training activities, we expect players to take responsibility in scheduling matches, practicing their serves, hitting on the ball machine or continue their training outside what the academy has to offer. We will challenge the players with “homework,” such as hitting 100 serves before their next lesson or playing five matches before their up and coming tournament. All academy players are expected to complete their homework by the deadline.

One way that we chart and record our academy players’ work ethic is through our Player to Watch Ladder. Each time a player completes a training that is not related to an academy work out, they record it on a Player to Watch card. Every Monday, the academy staff enters all the hours trained by each player into the computer and send it out via e-mail to all players and parents as well as on the website.
