No tennis academy in the world better prepares current or aspiring professionals than the IMG Bollettieri Tennis Academy. With 10 worldwide No. 1-ranked players and countless more ATP and WTA players to its credit, the IMG Bollettieri Tennis Academy offers completely customized training programs to players competing in Futures, Challengers and ATP- or WTA-level tournaments. All participants of this tennis training camp must have verifiable ATP or WTA points. Upon arrival, players are evaluated and matched with others of a similar skill level. 
With 56 tennis courts (US Open-grade hard, clay, outdoor and indoor), most of which equipped with video analysis software, the IMG Bollettieri Tennis Academy can accommodate any men's or women's high school, collegiate or international team. Combine that court availability with "Nick's War Room" for match strategy sessions, 50+ coaches with extensive experience available to help and competition for all skill levels available, nowhere in the world can match what is offered at IMG Bollettieri for tennis teams.
Coaches
Coaches at the IMG Bollettieri Tennis Academy are split into teams that are led by our four senior coaches - Jose Lambert, Red Ayme, Mark Dalzell and Paul Forsyth. This format gives our students the resources and tools necessary to become successful tennis players.
Under the guiding principles of our founder, Nick Bollettieri, the responsibility of an IMG Bollettieri Tennis Academy coach goes beyond tennis instruction. Their role is to infuse our student/athletes with the on and off court ethics of hard work, responsibility, discipline, integrity, success and failure as qualities that will carry them beyond the Academy and into life. Their goal is to develop more than well-rounded tennis players; their goal is to develop well-rounded student/athletes, who will take the disciplines they have learned at the Academy and adjust them to life beyond the court.
Coaching Staff
Nick Bollettieri is one of the most influential people in the world of tennis and a legend who has transcended the sport. In 1978, he founded the IMG Bollettieri Tennis Academy in Florida. The IMG Bollettieri Tennis Academy was the first full-time tennis boarding school to combine intense training on the court with a custom-designed academic curriculum. What was once a program of primarily on court training has evolved into a multi-faceted approach which includes blending the technical and strategic on-court training with specialized performance physical training and mental conditioning.
