We carefully study all the files that are transmitted to us because we believe that motivation and state of mind are an integral part of success. A satisfactory academic level is required because the intensity of the program is sustained and the expected level of demand is high. A tennis player who trains regularly and has already started competing has the possibility to apply to join the French Touch Academy's tennis & school program.

The schedule is optimized because young players have no time to lose! Lessons take place on the French campus, where tennis and physical training also take place, as well as full-board accommodation. Depending on the section, age and level of tennis, a personalized timetable is proposed, integrating competition time, medical follow-up and physical recovery. Group cohesion, individual integration and the well-being of our academicians all contribute to their success: moments of play, sharing and relaxation are planned and integrated into the schedule.

All the prices for our tennis study program are detailed in the 'prices' section. For example, a year at the French school costs €22,500. This price includes all tuition, training and competition fees. We are committed to developing our sport, and to helping the best hopefuls succeed, by encouraging the profiles of players with 'potential'. Requests for exceptional financial assistance may be considered, depending on the player's sporting level and in line with the young athlete's family project.

All applications are studied with great attention by the school and sports management team. After an in-depth telephone interview to evaluate the candidate's academic level and motivation, a week of testing is scheduled. This test week takes place at the Cap d'Agde International Tennis Centre, and enables the level of tennis to be assessed, as well as the candidate's room for improvement. School tests and in-depth interviews are also scheduled.

Yes, we offer a BTS formula for players who have already obtained their baccalaureate. This formula is particularly favoured by young people wishing to prepare a departure to an American University, thanks to a scholarship. One or two years of preparation are very useful, because they allow to significantly improve the level of tennis and thus increase the amount of the scholarship. It is also the time needed to prepare the application files, pass the mandatory exams and finalize the administrative part of the departure (when this was not possible before, for young people who have not followed the Tennis Etudes course of the French Touch Academy).

Depending on sporting and academic results, but above all on the wishes of the young graduate, many options are available to young people who have followed the tennis & school program. After obtaining the baccalaureate, and an adequate sports preparation, one of the options that we strongly encourage is the integration of a University in the USA, thanks to a scholarship. Others will prefer to try their luck on the professional tennis circuit (ATP/WTA/ITF). Whatever their choice, the whole team of the academy is committed to do everything possible to accompany the young person in the pursuit and success of his sporting and/or professional objective.
