Tennis Team

We have the best team of tennis coaches available under one roof. 12 Tennis coaches went to Germany for three months to get rigorous training from Alexander Waske and his team. The main purpose of this training is to understand the level of intensity involved in training the top professionals so that this team can deliver similar coaching in India. Also to see many of the top 100 ATP and WTA players get trained in front of them teaches a lot of things to the coaches. Learning the exact methods and protocol followed at Alexander Waske Tennis University in Germany was the main goal. After coming back to India, these coaches are training the players by following the same methods adopted in Germany. Also, Alex himself or his other top coaches regularly visits India location to maintain the quality and standard of the coaching. You can see details and experience of our renowned coaches below.
