Founded in 1998 by
Emilio Sánchez Vicario and Sergio Casal, the Academia Sánchez-Casal
is an educational institution, with the highest standards and a proven track record in developing successful young people through all stages of their lives. Using tennis and education within the ‘Academia’ framework as the vehicle for personal development, our student athletes will continue to be responsible citizens of the world, long after they leave our care.
In May 2007, Academia Sánchez-Casal opened its USA base at the Naples Bath and Tennis Club, Naples, Florida.
At the Academia Sánchez-Casal we have:
- the best coaches, who have been top world ranked players
