Abstract

At the Sánchez-Casal Tennis Academy in Naples, Florida, mental training is one of the four pillars of the training system, along with technical, tactical and physical training. The way in which all of the pillars are interrelated is one of the strengths of the system. We work as a team and give comprehensive attention to each area.
