We develop strong technical foundations while encouraging each athlete to develop their own playing style, identity and confidence on the court.
Whether a player’s goal is to become a city, provincial or national champion, earn a U.S. university tennis scholarship, compete at the highest levels of the sport, or simply discover how good they can become, NTA provides the environment, coaching and commitment to help them get there.
We believe in world-class coaching, purposeful training and developing complete student-athletes.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
RESPECT ALL. FEAR NONE.
Players respect coaches. Coaches respect players.
We believe athletes perform at their best when they love the game, train with passion and understand the value of hard work.
Our coaches and players work together to establish goals and achieve them in a positive, demanding and supportive environment.
We develop more than tennis players.
We develop competitors, students, teammates and young adults prepared to succeed on and off the court.
Our vision is to create a true lifetime sport and education program for student-athletes.
The National Tennis Academy Sport & Study Program is designed to allow committed junior athletes to combine high-performance tennis training and tournament competition with their academic responsibilities.
OUR MISSION & VALUES
Intensive tennis training without compromising education.
Whether your goal is professional tennis, a university scholarship, national competition or simply reaching your full potential in both tennis and academics, we will give you the tools and environment to pursue it.
There are no shortcuts to success.
Consistency. Determination. Passion. Integrity. Perseverance.
We encourage our athletes to be ambitious, resilient and constantly looking for ways to improve.
National Tennis Academy is more than a tennis program.
The discipline, confidence, work ethic and strength of character developed through high-performance sport are skills our student-athletes will carry with them for life.
Your success is our mission.

WHY NTA?
41 YEARS OF EXCELLENCE
QUALIFIED & PROFESSIONAL COACHING
Our passionate Tennis Canada certified and experienced coaching staff provides players with the structure required for a complete development program. We believe high-performance coaching should be demanding while remaining positive and supportive.
The welfare and long-term development of every student-athlete remains our priority.
METHOD & TAILORED SESSIONS
Each player receives customized training. The Academy’s method focuses on reinforcing the individual’s strengths. Armed with self-confidence, the player can work on improving the weak aspects of his/her game. Trust is a very important factor, and we absolutely need to create and maintain a trusting environment between the coaches and players. Customized training is the only way one can progress. Coaches rely on their technical, tactical and mental skills to adapt to the player’s needs.
PHYSICAL PREPARATION & RECOVERY
From injury prevention to focusing on specific physical attributes and exercises, we test and analyze the profile of each player to activate a working plan which answers the needs of each player.
