Tournaments are organized by clubs in the region and are sanctionned by the French Tennis Federation (FFT). They can be played any time of the day and any day of the week. Foreign players get a licence and a rating that will allow them to play for the whole season in France.
ISP takes care of all the administrative work: licence and rating, registration and transport. Each player needs to bring a medical certificate using the template.
Camps at ISP Tennis Academy allow students to push their physical limits while improving technically, tactically, and mentally.
Our camps run all year long (for groups and on request for competition players) and during school holidays (for everyone, starting from 8 years old for non-boarders and 10 years old for boarders, to 18 years old and over for adults) and include varied tennis practices, adapted to tennis physical conditioning sessions, official tournaments and intensive language classes.
