Programs

Our programs are meaningful and targeted specifically to the needs of our students.

We have developed programs for all ages and levels of players, including individualised training packages for Pro Players on the ATP and WTA Tours.

As well as our player programs we also cater for adult players of all levels, teens and seniors preparing to climb the ladder of success.

Effective player development is our passion; we believe that a deliberate and structured approach to a player’s improvement process is the best way to realise their potential.

Providing training in each of the key developmental aspects is key, then offering a well-targeted pathway for these players to progress toward their desired goals.

The required athleticism, including running, jumping, sliding, turning, twisting, accelerated starting, sudden stopping and then hitting the ball in a complex variety of directions and ways, is incredibly demanding physically. Any lack in strength, flexibility, agility or fitness will have an exponential impact on a players physical capabilities, but it will also spread across the other player competencies in the mental, technical, tactical and emotional proficiencies.

Tournament Performance Program

Tournament Performance

Kooyong International Tennis Academy’s Tournament Performance Program (TPP) is specifically designed for athletes, 14 years + and 17 years + aspiring to maximise their potential, to be as good as they can be and/or to become a professional tennis player. This world class program provides the opportunity for advanced players to secure the components required to heighten performance on the tournament stage. It is more than how to swing, it is about how to play and the specific process and structure that leads to being successful and attaining the players goals. Many of the world’s leading players have developed through an all-inclusive holistic system similar to Kooyong Tennis Academy’s TPP. Important aspects included in this program are: goal setting, diary-time management, scheduling, knowledge record, nutrition and dietary information, strength and conditioning such as agility and flexibility information, components of play-matching character, physicality and discipline, psychological guidance, tournament support and analysis.

Squad Development Program

Squad Development

The ‘pathway to the top’ must have an overall structure and here at KITA our message throughout all squads will deliver progressiveness and level that reflects, from all our players, their potential and enduring love for the game through our innovative global program. The system, driven by KITA’s High Performance Team, addresses the multiple components of play with an overall theme for each term and specifics (focus) related to the term theme, carried out on a fortnightly periodised basis. This process will cover all shots in an all-court manner and the match play component rewards the level of performance … high energy and intensity the result. Squads have a tier system to ensure competitive training and based on ability, hard work, conduct and respect players will flow between tiers when appropriate - thus new players need to be assessed (trial by appointment). Players are encouraged to have a private coach at some level as training (components of play) complements technique development. Sessions are available including periodical match play, plus competition/tournament support as designated through the year.
