Transcontinental program Florida and Barcelona

Emilio Sánchez Academy & American School provide an International Student Exchange Program featuring dual ES Academy campuses in Naples, Florida and Barcelona, Spain.

ES Academy is the only residential tennis academy in the world to have wholly-owned campus headquarters located in both Europe and the United States. Its Exchange Program offers high school and middle school students the exclusive opportunity to pursue college preparatory academic studies while training within high-performance tennis academy programs, completing one semester in Naples and one semester in Barcelona.

The academics offered in each location are compatible from one semester to the next, so students can move seamlessly between the two campuses in both academics and tennis training. The Naples school can also issue I-20s for F-1 visas. Unlike other academies, each ES Academy campus has its tennis facilities, school and residences within the same property creating a safe, fun, and healthy family environment for all student athletes.

Emilio Sánchez is based in Naples. This ensures that the respective programs they direct and the world class coaching staff they manage will deliver consistent training experiences to their Exchange Program athletes at both academies.

ES Exchange Program students will have the opportunity to play a wider array of international tournaments, and compete against a much broader spectrum of players, while living in two different countries during one school year.

The cultural enrichment to be realized from this program, via its international array of students, coaches and teachers, is unparalleled in the industry. There’s no better way than this Exchange Program, to prepare a tennis player for the collegiate athletic and academic experience. Additionally, Emilio Sánchez Academy & School staff in both locations will work together to provide the hands-on university placement guidance required to match its student athletes with the appropriate colleges or universities.

Facilities

The campus of ES American School is located within the world-class sports facilities of the Emilio Sánchez Academy, which provides high-performance tennis training and physical conditioning. The beautiful campus is situated close to all the major attractions in Barcelona, Spain.
