Empowering needy communities

Who we are

Our vision

We are an organization on a mission to close the education and tennis gaps in the most underserved communities in the world. 
We were established to bring high performance coaching down to the grassroots level. In January, 2024 a group of experienced coaches, authors, researchers and program developers joined forces to create the Global Tennis Development Institute. GTDI offers Master Certifications in high performance coaching for player development. The Founders have a wide range of tennis expertise with coaching certifications that includes: USTA, USPTA, USPTR, and CYSA from the National Association for Youth Sports
