Best summer tennis camps in Europe

There are many tennis academies and camps in Europe today, from large and big name tennis academies to mini clubs. Do not rely on the name of the player only. A tennis business is not an easy process to set up, it takes years to establish a base, find an experienced head coach who can manage the training process, a good physical trainer and also involve people who are tennis related and understand tennis.  Some small clubs can also compete well with the big academies. On the plus side, there are a small number of players and low prices for training, but clubs have the problem of helping to open a long term visa, accommodation, etc.

First you need to decide for how long you want to send your player to the tennis academy and for which program.  
There are 2 main types of programs: summer camp and professional program.  
Summer Tennis Camp is a program for children from 6 to 18 years old for the summer period. You should start searching for an academy in January-March to be able to get detailed information about the academy and open a visa (if required), as well as to book tickets. Many academies organize camps not only for the summer period, but also during school vacations. If your child is at a good tennis level, then its better place him/her in a pro program for the summer period.  
Pro Program - For any period of stay during the year. We would not recommend to come for a week, as there is adaptation after the flight and getting used to the training process.  At least 2 weeks to evaluate the training process and understand whether it suits you or not.

 
We would divide academies into 2 types:  
-big popular academies 
-small unknown clubs  
Unfortunately, nowadays many academies use the name of a famous tennis player.  You should not rely only on the player's name. Tennis business is not an easy process to set up, it takes many years to establish a base, find an experienced head coach who can manage the training process, a good physical fitness coach and also involve people who are related to tennis and understand tennis.  
Some small clubs can also compete well with the big academies. Plus - small number of players and low prices for training, but clubs have a problem in helping to open a visa for a long period of time.  
Choose an academy with experience that has been around for more than one year.  Check the number of players in the program. The more crowded, the less attention will be paid to the player in the group.
