The goal of every tennis player is to be one of the great players of Grand Slam, Masters 1000, Premier Mandatory or Premier 5. A goal that requires constant work, hand in hand with a first class coaching staff. For this reason, it is necessary that the coach has not only a deep knowledge of the sport, but also includes the latest technological advances for game analysis, performance or advances in the improvement of the hitting technique.

So, behind figures like Serena Williams, Rafa Nadal, Federer or Djokovic there is a preparation from childhood that is perfected in High Performance. To boost the professional career of those who want to be the next coaches or physical trainers, TECH Global University has developed this 24-month university degree with the most advanced syllabus in High-Performance and Competitive Tennis.

A program that will lead the graduate to obtain an exhaustive learning on the study of biomechanics, the improvement of the tennis serve and stroke, the improvement of the movement on the court or the physical preparation and planning, taking into account the moment of competition. Also, this academic option includes the most advanced technology to be able to carry out technical-tactical studies of both the athlete and the opponent.

All this, in addition to a pedagogical material based on video summaries of each topic, videos in detail, specialized readings and case studies that provide a theoretical-practical and dynamic perspective. Likewise, the Relearning system, based on content reiteration, students will be able to reduce the long hours of study and easily consolidate the most important concepts.

A program that is also known for its flexibility and convenience.
