Tennis Congress was created by serious tennis players for serious players. Tennis Congress events give adults who are still passionate about tennis (low-intermediate through high-performance NTRP 5.0) access to world-class training that is usually reserved for top juniors and professionals. Join fellow tennis fanatics and some of the best coaches from around the world for a uniquely fun and inspiring experience that covers all aspects of training necessary to improve your game, on and off the court.

SIGN UP FOR ADVANCED INVITATIONS

When registering for the Tennis Congress event, it is crucial that you accurately report under your playing level to be matched up with the most appropriate coach and skills training. Registering under the wrong level will take time away from the session benefits and our ability to customize your schedule and become disruptive to you and your group’s schedule.

What to expect starting Thursday…You will be offered two customized pathways for intensive on-court training: one for Singles, another for Doubles. At sign up, you will choose the pathway you prefer — then we’ll put together a coaching team and customized schedule for you designed based on the feedback you provided when filling out your event profile.

12 Hours of Customized On-Court Assessment and Training Focused on your needs (4.0–4.5 Hours per Day): You will be placed in a group of athletes of the same playing level and work with two coaching groups (“AM” and “PM” groups), and your coaching team will work collaboratively to customize your on-court curriculum around the goals and priorities you identify in advance. This approach will preserve the traditional opportunity to work with multiple coaches, but add more continuity to your on-court experience than ever before. Your coaches will be able to refine your curriculum in real time and provide personalized feedback throughout the Congress based on needs and opportunities that arise. Note: if you attend with a spouse, doubles partner or friend at the same level, we can place you in the same coaching groups upon request.

Up to 10 Hours of Elective Specialized Off-Court Workshops and group break outs. (Appx 3 Hours per Day): Because success in tennis is about more than hitting a good ball, we will offer a wide variety of off-court class options each day with world-renowned experts on topics ranging from strategy, mental conditioning, fitness, nutrition, and equipment to supplement your core training plan.

Meals and Special Evening Programs: The sessions may be intense, but once the racquets go back in the bag it’s time to relax and socialize with your new tennis friends. The 2023 program includes three dinners, three breakfasts and three lunches over the course of the event (Th.
Program Fee: The total price for Alumni and any of your family members is $2,550 (non-alumni price of $2,750), $550 of which is a tax-deductible donation to the Net Gains Foundation (please note: this portion is non-refundable).

Discounted Resort Room: Registered participants are eligible for a special discounted $195/night room rate at the Hilton El Conquistador. Participants will be eligible to book their stay at the resort for this price for three days before and three days after the event. If your travel schedule allows for it I would encourage you to take advantage of this great offer. You will receive details on how to book your discounted room after you register.

What is in the future for Tennis Congress?
THE RISE PROJECT & 1000 Aces Programs

Launching in 2022, The Rise Project will feature a competitive “fellows program” to help extraordinary “rising” ATP and WTA players outside the Top 100 so they can:

• Reduce financial-related stress and distractions
• Free up precious time and energy for training
• Invest in high-quality coaching and training-related resources
• Feel more supported along their journeys
• Get inspired to give back and “pay it forward” later as their careers evolve

Our Mission

The Net Gains Foundation (NGF) initiates and supports efforts that harness the power of tennis as a catalyst for lifelong health and wellness, personal and professional growth, character-driven leadership, and cause-oriented service.

If you agree that tennis is just about the best game in the world, and you want to continue to play at the top of your game for as long as possible, then join us, Thursday October 19–22nd in Tucson, Arizona.
