The Sania Mirza Tennis Academy has launched an elite high-performance programme aimed at nurturing the next generation of professional tennis players, bringing in international expertise to elevate training standards.
The initiative has been introduced in collaboration with a Portuguese coach, marking a significant step in the academy’s efforts to integrate global best practices into its coaching framework. Founded by former Indian tennis star Sania Mirza, the academy has long been a hub for aspiring players, and the new programme is expected to further strengthen its reputation as a premier training centre.
Officials associated with the academy said the high-performance programme is designed to provide advanced technical, tactical, and physical training tailored for players aiming to compete at national and international levels. The inclusion of an overseas coach is intended to bring fresh perspectives, modern methodologies, and exposure to international playing styles.

The programme will focus on a holistic development model, combining on-court training with fitness conditioning, mental strength, nutrition planning, and match analysis. Such a comprehensive approach is increasingly seen as essential in modern tennis, where marginal gains can make a significant difference at the elite level.
The move also reflects a broader trend in Indian sports, where academies are seeking international collaborations to bridge the gap between domestic training systems and global standards. By investing in high-performance infrastructure and expertise, institutions like the Sania Mirza Tennis Academy are aiming to produce players capable of succeeding on the world stage.
With the launch of this programme, the academy is expected to attract top young talent from across the country. Stakeholders believe that sustained efforts of this nature could play a key role in strengthening India’s presence in international tennis in the coming years.
