About Mouratoglou Academy

The facilities are first-class, the staff is incredibly welcoming, and the level of instruction is top-notch.

— Lilou Milla

Founded by legendary tennis coach Patrick Mouratoglou—the mastermind behind Serena Williams' historic career—Mouratoglou Academy in Zephyrhills brings world-class racquet sports training to the Tampa Bay area. This isn't just a tennis academy anymore; it's evolved into a comprehensive multi-sport destination where padel has found a passionate following.

The Courts

Mouratoglou Academy features 5 outdoor padel courts alongside its impressive 11 professional tennis courts and 8 pickleball courts. The facility spans a sprawling campus north of Tampa, offering players of all levels the chance to experience padel in a world-class training environment. The outdoor courts take advantage of Florida's year-round sunshine, with the academy currently developing indoor facilities scheduled to open in June 2025.

Programs & Coaching

The academy offers a comprehensive range of programs including private lessons, group clinics, weekend camps, and tournament play. The coaching staff brings the same philosophy of excellence that Patrick Mouratoglou applied to developing champions. Nick and the team receive consistent praise for their instruction and enthusiasm.
