Franco's Tennis Academy is proud to announce a unique partnership with the BQuick Sports Performance. Sports Performance is working with us to develop a tennis oriented functional training program. Success at the Academy level is partially dependent on speed & agility around the court, as well as explosive strength for powerful strokes. While technique & tactics can be taught on the court, speed, agility and power are attributes that are best developed in specific off-court exercises. Academy players should be involved in off-court strength, speed, agility, conditioning, nutrition, flexibility and core training since it is the only way to fully develop their potential while avoiding injuries.

Tuesday and Thursday from 5:30 - 6:30 pm.
Tuesday is TRX Training.
Thursday is BQuick Sports.
