High Performance Tennis Programs
Four programs, one system. Full Board Elite at the high performance tennis academy in Spain, Remote Elite Junior with your own coach, Assessment Clinics to know exactly where your player stands, and dedicated blocks for professional players and institutions.
Each runs on the same assessment framework, the same Head Coach standard and the same six-week development cycle. What changes is the environment and the depth of daily immersion. A player can enter through an assessment, move to remote work with a local coach, and later take a full board place — without ever restarting from zero, because the file follows them from one format to the next.
One System, in the Right Format for Your Player
Players ready to reorganise daily life around a professional development environment.
A limited residential program at the academy: daily coaching, physical and mental preparation, competition planning, continuous Head Coach supervision.
September 2026 intake, profiles under review.
Players with a strong local coach committed to working inside an external development framework.
iTUSA defines the assessment, the objectives and the plan. The local coach delivers on court. The System connects both to the Head Coach.
Limited enrolment, reviewed on a rolling basis.
Players who want to know exactly where they stand before any program decision.
Stroke-by-stroke evaluation, a documented report, a personalised work plan. On site or remote.
