Base Tennis. A tennis academy and summer camp. Located in Höhr Grenzhausen, Germany.
We have numerous players from Germany, Australia, NZ, UK, and the USA basing themselves in Germany throughout the year to gain valuable European experience. Players can choose the program that suits them best, and even combine many programs during their time in Germany.
We have an open-door policy and like to support and work closely with the players’ coaching staff at home or other clubs in their pursuit of creating a top performance athlete.
The pathway
The program is designed to satisfy the needs of the player. A player can choose between two pathways: ‘’Tennis for life’’ or ‘’Road to college.’’
BASE philosophy is to help people become the best they can be through the sport, and a minimum of hours of training is required to achieve it. BASE takes tennis seriously, and meeting our program’s standards is non-negotiable because it is what we firmly believe.
