Decent and very well disciplined place to be. But you do not expect anything else from an Academy guided by Christian principles. I really want to see them practically involving themselves in the rough corners of big cities in Europe. Evangelical work is a big part of them and if that is what you respect and need I can not find a better Tennis Academy around.

Leonardo's Academy Profile
Leonardo is an ex- Italian tennis player who now runs his own academy in Sicily. He invented a niche in the Tennis Academy business by offering free coaching and bed and breakfast for any female players ranked under 900. He takes a percentage from the player’s earnings.
Nothing wrong with that. Not everyone can reach the Top 100. The idea is actually old however. Boxing gyms started doing the same system 47 years ago. Remember you can still make a living from playing tennis even if your ranking is high. So before you decide to “hang up your racket “ to young try Leonardo first.
I hope that Leonardo doesn’t drop this system and suddenly decide to run his academy like the big guns of Europe, he will not have a chance!!
Website is horrendous, however importantly you can find his contact details there.

Monte Carlo Tennis Academy
He says:
MCTA, the first touring tennis academy in the world. MCTA is an elite and exclusive tennis academy with the mission to discover, train and manage the most promising young tennis players in the world and to develop them to become top 100 professional tennis players.The Monte Carlo Country Club (MCCC) is the base for the Monte Carlo Tennis Academy. The Club was inaugurated in 1928 in front of an assembly of royalty, including Gustav V of Sweden, the Great Duke Andre of Russia and HSH Prince Louis II of Monaco. Since its origin the MCCC has always been in the forefront of the international tennis scene.
It plays host to a Masters Series tournament where the greatest names in tennis battle it out year after year on the famous red clay courts; Nastase, Vilas, Borg, Connors, Lendl, Edberg, Becker, Kuerten, Ferrero, and Nadal are just a few who have enthralled spectators and TV audiences worldwide. A Quest for Excellence The Monte Carlo Tennis Academy’s mission is to discover, train and manage the best junior tennis players in the world and develop them to become top professional players. The Monte Carlo Country Club’s association with success and excellence provides the perfect training base for the Academy's players in what is undoubtedly one of the most stunning locations in the world.
Players:
Anna Fitzpatrick
Ilija Vucic
Henri Kontinen
Wesley Moodie
Stefania Boffa
His Credo:
"We’re delighted to be the home base of the Monte Carlo Tennis Academy created by Vincent Hillsdon and David Sammel. We are sure that this new and unique touring tennis academy will rapidly be successful. We are certain the players and the coaching staff of the academy will find here all the necessary facilities to achieve their goals.” Francis Truchi, Director of the MCCC.
I say :
Monte Carlo is some kind of fusion and confusion of an academy. It is really a country club which decided to organise tournaments and then 16 years ago decided to open an academy. These days their trying to create a niche called "travelling academy". Their nice people but they have the attitude of making your child aware, on a daily basis of how lucky he or she is that they have opened their doors for them. Their mainly connected with people from Great Britain they have a good Head Coach and he is using his connections in Great Britain to raise the profile of the academy. If you take out the famous name of Monte Carlo and concentrate on watching the Monte Carlo tennis academy as only an academy you will see that it is an honest but average place to be.
