Ivan Lendl International Junior Tennis Academy Triples Enrollment |

The Ivan Lendl International Junior Tennis Academy (Ivan Lendl IJTA) – led by the former No.1 player in the world and coach to Andy Murray – announces the spring class has tripled enrollment from its inaugural semester.

The new semester at Ivan Lendl IJTA began Jan. 16 on Hilton Head Island, S.C. The spring class features students from Canada, New Zealand, Russia and the U.S.

“The enrollment influx from fall to spring is a tribute to the elite instruction our coaches provide students each day,” says Peter Orrell, President and CEO of Junior Sports Corporation, owner/operator of the Ivan Lendl IJTA. “Ivan Lendl IJTA offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for passionate junior tennis players to reach their ultimate potential.”

The Ivan Lendl IJTA is based on philosophies Lendl followed to become one of the greatest players in tennis history. The Academy concentrates on classic fundamentals, leading-edge biomechanics, strength training / fitness and mental preparation.

Lendl and his staff subscribe to a hands-on approach with students, instilling dedication, focus, hard work, motivation and overall preparation.

Ivan Lendl IJTA students (grades five through 12) attend Heritage Academy. It is dedicated to progressive and diverse academic instruction for juniors pursuing extra-curricular passions. Classes average eight students — with a maximum of 15 — to promote individual attention. Optional English as a Second Language, College Preparatory and Honors courses are also available.
