The age ranges above serve as general guidelines. Players may be moved up or down a level when appropriate to ensure they train in the environment that best supports their long-term development.

Start Anywhere. Progress Everywhere.

The pathway illustrates the ideal long-term development of a player who begins tennis at a young age. However, players may join CITA at any age and at any level.

Following an individual assessment, each player is placed in the most appropriate program and supported through a personalized development plan designed to help them progress confidently through the pathway.

Every step builds the champion within. At CITA, we develop players for life.

CITA Languages

Developing Well-Rounded Global Athletes

At CITA, we believe that developing pro tennis players means preparing them for an international career. A well-rounded athlete speaks the world's languages, and that's why we offer language programs designed to equip our players with the communication skills they need to thrive on the global stage.

Our language programs run alongside tennis training, ensuring athletes develop both on and off the court. Whether it's interviewing with international media, communicating with coaches abroad, or building relationships across cultures, language fluency gives our athletes an edge.

Spanish

Essential for international tennis circuits across Spain and Latin America.

🇮🇹
