We Have The Right Trip For You!
THE TEAMS: European teams are composed of 12-15 players between the ages of 14-18 years old and 2 full time tennis professional/chaperones while North American teams have 14-20 players between the ages of 14-18 years old and 2 or 3 full time coach/chaperones. The itineraries listed below are tentative and will be finalized in the spring when we receive the tournament schedules.
Starting Tournament Player Teams: You should have mastered the basics, have some degree of steadiness on groundstrokes, get serves in consistently and be ready to play matches. You may lack experience in playing matches, which is why you travel with us. Suggested teams: Costa del Sol to Paris/London; San Diego to Vancouver.
High School Varsity Level Players Teams: You should play on your high school tennis team. Since school teams can differ considerably in strength, you can also be a high junior varsity player on very strong varsity teams. Examples of Teams: Grand Slam; Benelux Green; Vienna to Tuscany; French Med; Firenze to Paris; Hawaii/California.
USTA Ranked Teams: You should be at least a 2 star recruit on tennisrecruiting.net with some wins over 3 star recruits or players ranked top 100 in their USTA sections. Examples of Teams: The National Team; Mallorca to Barcelona; San Diego to Santa Barbara. Ranked players may also travel on any of our other trips.
If you are unsure of your ability level, we can talk with your coach or even see you play at a match.

Our Coaches
Each team has two full time coaches who serve 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Additionally, Dr. Vinokur and Gary Weiner, along with two Assistant Directors, circulate among the various teams. Our coaches are carefully selected for their ability to chaperone, relate to teenagers, and teach tennis to advanced juniors. Our staff members return year after year and are college coaches, USPTA or USPTR accredited teaching professionals, or past TENNIS: EUROPE participants. We conduct a comprehensive orientation prior to the trip.
