TENNIS & SCHOOL2015-2016

THE N°1TENNIS ACADEMY IN EUROPE Founded by Patrick Mouratoglou’s drive and the

merger between TETC Paris and ISP Nice, the Mouratoglou Tennis Academy is now an undis-puted leader in the training of future champions. Recognized as one of the most efficient institutions in the world, the Academy, since its conception encompasses some of the greatest hopes for future tennis champions. Over the years, it has also become a major conduit for American Universities who recruit the best student-athletes in the world.

Our Tennis and Study program provides our young athletes with both a high level of athletic training and an excellent academic education, al lowing them to harmoniously combine intensive training, tournaments and school curriculum throughout the year.

The ultimate objective is to help our students gain valuable insight to both sports and education, leading to a professional tennis career and/or obtaining a scholarship to an American University.

ABOUT US

THE MERGERThe Mouratoglou Tennis Academy is the joining of two remarkable French tennis professionals, Patrick Mouratoglou and Charles Auffray.

In 1996, Patrick Mouratoglou established TETC and within 15 years became one of the most respected coaches in the world. He is accredited with the remarkable careers of Marcos Baghdatis, Grigor Dimitrov and Serena Williams.

In 1998, Charles Auffray, a former profes-sional player and graduate of Pepperdine University, California, USA, opened the first French placement athletes agency for American universities and in 2003 established his own academy (ISP).

They both decided to join forces in 2014 and set up the most solid and prestigious Academy in Europe. A high performance level in tennis accompa-nied with a sound educational syllabus is their creed.

OUR SCHOOLA French and International school allowing French and foreign students to benefit from a rigorous academic program organized around an intensive tennis schedule.

MULTI-CULTURAL APPROACHOver 30 nationalities live on campus during the year. Students are enriched by discovering other cultures and can improve their English naturally through contacts with their foreign peers. This international environment is a real asset.

PHILOSOPHYOur Academy is much more than a simple school or a training facility.It allows each Individual to develop their force of cha-racter and keep an open mind. Learning effort in the classroom and on the court is our mandate. Achieving results is our first priority

EXCEPTIONAL GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATIONWith over 300 days of sunshine a year, the French Riviera is one of the best destinations in the world for intensive tennis, seeing that 80% of international and university competitions are played outdoors. Nice International Airport, 15 minutes from the Academy, provides quick and easy access to players and parents around the world.

KEYS TO SUCCESS

COACHING & MANAGEMENTOur qualified and professional staff is comprised of 20 tennis and fitness coaches, all educated at the Mouratoglou training methods. Passionate and methodical, our coaches give players the ideal setting for a full training program. Students are supervised on campus 24/7 by caring staff. The welfare of each and every student is our priority. To excel in both academics and athletics we invest in quality time for the well being of our students.

SCHOOLINGOur goal is to find the right balance between school and tennis. Students are given responsi-bilities which encourage them to effectively manage their time. Our students progress in small classes, allowing a unique relationship with demanding teachers. The curriculum is consistently tailored to student achievement. In view of tournaments, the program is modified only if the student is up to date with school assignments.

METHOD & TAILORED COURSESThe Academy’s method focuses on reinforcing the individual’s strengths. Now, armed with self-confidence the player can work on impro-ving the weak aspects of his/her game. Trust is a very important factor and we absolutely need to create and maintain a trusting environment between the coaches and players. Customized training is the only way one can progress. Coaches rely on their technical, tactical and mental skills to adapt to the player’s needs.The Mouratoglou method is centering around 8 main points, all essential for a successful tennis player, and which has proven its efficiency on many occasions at the highest level.

WIDE RANGE OF LEVELSThe Academy is composed of 130 male and female players of different levels. Even if the average level is very high at the academy, players will always be challenged. Players improve consistently and will systematically be challenged at their different levels. This particularity promotes progression.

PHYSICAL TRAININGPhysical training at the Academy is of fundamental importance. To prevent specific injuries, we test and analyze the needs of each player to create a customized workout schedule. Programs are often tailored to the physiological development and sometimes medical diagnosis is taken into account.

HIGH LEVEL PERFORMANCEThe High Level performance is a source of inspiration to our youth. Many male and female players of the ATP & WTA Tours train here regularly and it is a fantastic opportunity for our students to see top players perform.

SUPERVISED TOURNAMENTSSupervision is provided to our students in every tournament. We observe every match and encourage the players, focusing on their attitude and their objectives. Each match gives rise to a specific debriefing.

USA - SCHOLARSHIPSEvery year, more than 50 male and female players leave the Academy. On average scholarships cover 70% of the total fees. An ideal way to study a minimum of 4 years and to play in high level championships. A great opportunity to train intensively every day and stay competitive while building on one’s academic background.

INTERNATIONALThis year, over 30 different nationalities are represented at the Academy, of which 65% are English-speaking students. This cultural blend is unique, allowing our students to progress rapidly and systematically.

The average annual cost of an American university is $ 30,000, and our students receive scholarships that covers on average 70% of the total fees, the equivalent to 25,000 dollars per year.
