Racket Academy
The Patricio Racket Academy is present at all Patricio WORLD CLASS Racket Clubs. Its experienced, well-qualified and talented coaches will spark a passion in you for tennis. Our training philosophy is based on having fun, learning tennis in a natural way and improving your skills.
The Racket Academy method does not focus on individual strokes but on training geared towards matches and playing. The modern checkpoint tennis method allows players and coaches to review and improve training situations. The Racket Academy promotes individual style.
