To help inform the decision making process a series of open days are available to showcase the National Academy environments. Each open day will take place over one day and include a presentation from the Head Coach, an on-court session with the Head Coach, a tour of the campus facilities and a visit to the school and boarding accommodation.
We highly recommend you book onto an open day at each academy to help the decision making process and we welcome players, parents/guardians and any coaching team members who would like to attend.
Please note, attending an open day does not guarantee a place at a National Academy.
