The college prep tennis factory

Nearly two decades ago, Academia Sanchez-Casal (ASC) opened its doors in Barcelona, Spain with the purpose of providing tennis athletes with a custom-designed academic curriculum, combined with advanced tennis and athletic performance training, to prepare them for maximum success on and off the court.

Today, ASC is a world-renowned school and training destination academy on multiple continents that inspires and enables tennis athletes of all ages and ability levels to reach their full athletic and academic potential.

Its Barcelona, and now Naples, FL, alumni and trainees have ascended to the top of every level of competitive tennis, from junior national and international rankings and titles, to Collegiate All-American status and NCAA titles, to Olympic medals, to ATP / WTA titles, top 10 ATP / WTA rankings and Major Championship titles.

But over the last 18 years, ASC is especially proud of how consistently it has placed its graduates into excellent collegiate programs while receiving some form of athletic and/or academic scholarship assistance. On average:

• 95% of ASC graduates have gone on to college and played collegiate tennis.
• 83% of ASC students going to college received financial scholarship assistance.

The ASC college planning and placement program works. It guides all parents and students thru every step of the college selection, application and admission process. ASC has excellent relationships with collegiate coaches at all levels. Here are just some notable universities that ASC graduates have attended:

Wake Forest, Harvard, American University of Paris, Auburn, Bocconi University Italy, Bradley, Cal State, City University NY, Columbia, Davidson, Duquesne, DePaul, Elon, Emory, European University Barcelona, Furman, George Mason, Georgia Tech, Glion Institute Switzerland, Purdue, John Cabot U Rome Italy, Kin’s College London, Lehigh, Loyola Marymount, Marquette, NYU, Pepperdine, Rice, Sarah Lawrence, Savannah College of Art & Design, Ohio State, Temple, Texas A&M, Trinity, UC, UF, UI, UK, UM, UNC, University of Richmond London, USC, USF, UT, UVA, UW.
