IJP Tennis Announces Partnership with JET

PHOENIX, AZ, July 15, 2024 - IJP Tennis is excited to announce its new partnership with JET (Junior Elite Tennis), a tennis program for elite junior players.  JET has a similar approach to IJP Tennis, with a low player-coach ratio, personalized tennis instruction, coached matchplay, tennis-specific strength and conditioning, and mental performance training, but targeted to those players seeking Division I tennis and beyond. 

​JET was founded by Miguel Coelho, a native of Portugal.  Since 1997, Miguel has worked at clubs and academies in Portugal, Spain, and the US.  He has trained players of all levels and ages, from pre-school students to touring pros (ATP, WTA, ITF).  He is a USTA National Coach and a member of the USTA Southwest Coaches Commission.  Miguel holds a master's degree in high-performance tennis from UCAM Catholic University of Murcia (Spain) and is currently pursuing a PhD at the University of Arizona.

IJP Tennis's Red-Orange-Green-Yellow Ball high-performance development program will continue as our families have come to know since we launched in 2016.  The addition of JET will complement our program and extend our offering to elite juniors.  JET is a selective program that will admit players via invitation, and the IJP Tennis program will specifically prepare players for JET.
