Signature Summer

The Signature Summer Trip is open to players with at least some competitive experience, whether in tournaments or school tennis. Most tournaments we play organize draws by level, so players are matched against similar competition rather than thrown into an open draw. In the past, all our players have gotten close matches, whether their UTR was a 10, a 2, or somewhere in between. If you are unsure whether your level is the right fit, we're happy to chat more.

The price covers all accommodations, transportation within Europe except occasional public transit where individual contactless cards are required, court and tournament fees, coaching, breakfasts and dinners (except on select travel days), sightseeing, and 24/7 staff supervision.

Not included: flights to and from Europe, daily lunch, souvenirs, passport and visa fees, laundry, and any optional extras outside the planned itinerary.

The trip departs from and returns to New York, with Atlas coaches on board. Players also have the option to meet us directly in Europe. We fly into Barcelona and home from Geneva, and we handle and book all transportation once in Europe — flights, vans, and trains. Exact flight details are shared with families well ahead of departure.

In Blanes we stay at a hotel right on the beach, five minutes from the tennis club. In Zeist, we stay at a local hotel with spacious rooms (hard to find in Europe!) close to the center of town. In the Alps, we also stay right at a comfortable hotel in a peaceful alpine town. Players always have their own bed and only room with teammates of the same gender.

Breakfast and dinner are included daily (aside from travel days). Breakfast is usually at the hotel or a nearby cafe, and dinner is either at the hotel, at a restaurant with the full group, or in smaller groups with coaches. We are happy to accommodate allergies and dietary needs — just flag them on your application.

Yes. We spend a day at the ATP Swiss Open in Gstaad, a small ATP 250 that attracts top players. In the past, we've had the chance to meet, chat with, and get photos with Casper Ruud and Matteo Berrettini. We've also gotten to watch Stan Wawrinka, Alexander Bublik, and plenty of other top players at this intimate event.

It varies by week. During tournament stretches in Blanes and Zeist, days center around matches and practice at the local club, with time to connect with the local players — in Spain that often means tennis, soccer, and the club pool.

Every stop also builds in time to explore: La Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, the canals of Amsterdam, and day trips to the mountain towns of Chamonix and Verbier, and swimming in alpine lakes.

Players can use their phones to stay in touch with family — most US carriers work easily overseas, and WiFi is available at clubs, accommodations, and most places we visit. Our coaches and directors are always reachable if a question or concern comes up. The only time we ask players not to use their phones is when we are on court, walking somewhere, or during meals.

Safety is our top priority on every leg of the trip. We only travel to well-established, safe destinations, staff every trip with at least one male and one female coach who are present 24/7, and stay in close contact with trusted local hosts at each stop.

If a player gets sick or hurt, we never hesitate to seek out medical attention in any country, whether at a hospital, doctor's office, or pharmacy.

If you are ready to apply, please submit our Player Application. From there, we'll review everything, speak with the player references, and then follow up with next steps (usually within a few days) to lock in the spot with a deposit.
