La Manga Club Tennis: perfect for a holiday or any escape

If you want to improve your tennis game, you’re in the right place; the La Manga Club tennis program is second to none in terms of the breadth of its offer and level of instruction.

The Racquets Club, completely renovated in 2022, has become the social hub of the La Manga Club residential and holiday community. It has a full gym, including activity classes, and offers a variety of memberships to suit your needs and availability. The dining spaces include an indoor restaurant as well as an outdoor bar and casual eatery that serves light fare all day.

The Racquets Club is the largest open tennis club in Europe. Its 28 clay and hard-surface courts are complemented by seven padel courts, all of which are constructed and maintained to professional standards. Like the rest of the sport facilities in the resort, La Manga Club tennis is designed to serve not only the full range of amateur-level players, but also professionals looking for a place to train.

But the real star of The Racquets Club is the extensive list of classes offered by its Tennis & Padel Academy, which can be enjoyed during a weekend, one or several weeks, privately on a regular basis, or for intense training periods. Below we offer a recap of the programs on offer.

5-day adult tennis program

Two hours per day, Monday through Friday, makes this the perfect program to combine with your holidays. Players are grouped according to their skill level and there are additional optional fitness and footworking sessions offered on two of the days. The program builds solid skills and introduces new techniques to up your game.

Weekend adult tennis program

This program includes 4 two-hour sessions during the weekend (one Friday afternoon, two Saturday, and one Sunday morning), for an intense weekend dedicated to the sport. It’s a great package for those looking for a tennis holiday.

Holiday tennis program

During specific high-season eras of the calendar year, you can begin your morning with tennis instruction for strong amateur players. These classes from 8-9 am are offered Monday to Friday during Easter, July, August, and October, and are designed for club players. The low student-to-teacher ratio will get you plenty of attention to work on the skills you want to target.

Professional tennis academy

This professional-level tennis program is designed for junior players competing at the regional or national level and already training more than 6 hours per week. The program runs Monday-Friday from 10-13h, with a strength, technique and match tactics session, followed by two hours on our clay courts. Thursday afternoon, program participants come together for a tournament.

5-day junior tennis program

Designed with a similar structure to our 5-day adult program, this academy targets junior players between the ages of 6 and 15 who want to build their basic tennis skills and get their first understanding of the game on clay courts.

Under-7 junior tennis program

This 5-day program gives an hour’s worth of instruction every day to the youngest members of your family. The focus on basic skills comprises work on swing, balance, movement, and coordination, and can be adapted to all skill levels.

Padel training

Padel is extremely popular at La Manga Club tennis and we offer very similar training options as for tennis: Adult 5-day training; Adult weekend training; and Junior 5-day training. In addition, adults are welcome to join our lively Padel Socials, which take place throughout the year on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons, followed by a complimentary glass of wine or beer. During holiday seasons we also have a program of tournaments and exhibitions that you can consult at The Racquets Club.
