We have been in Florida for two weeks now. The kids have almost completed one week at the IMG Bollettieri academy. It’s been an eye-opening experience. We have a lot of work to do, but it’s great to have access to some of the best coaches around. Next week, we are going to try another academy, and then we may travel to a different part of Florida to experience yet another place. At IMG, the kids start tennis at 1:30 and go until 5:30, where they have a fitness component from 4:30 until 5:30. So far, they have not shown any sign of fatigue. They work with the full-time kids, as this week’s line-up of part timers were mostly older kids. They get to have group work, semi-private, matches and then fitness. The kids prefer more private time with a coach, so that is what they will do next week at another academy. On with the dream.
