& $25,000 Championships

Symposium Activities

February 14-20, 2009

You don't want to miss the 2009 International Tennis Symposium with all its educational and networking opportunities. Nearly 1,000 coaches from more than 50 countries attend each year, affording you the best tennis forum in the industry!

And what a great time to be on Hilton Head Island. With great deals on hotel rates, your family will love to get away to the sunshine and the beach. Or go in with your colleagues and get a villa to share. For international members, contact Julie regarding our international shared villas.

Your symposium registration includes all Symposium presentations, as well as the Awards Banquet, Gamma Casino Night Dinner, the Kaelin Dinner & Fashion Show and the Recognition Breakfast. And dust off your blue suede shoes for a rocking 50's Sock Hop and dinner from Head. That's a lot of education, meals and fun for a little registration fee!

Registration also includes the Drill Exchange, Fast Feeding Contest, Cardio Tennis workouts and the Annual Membership Meeting.

Also included is the Tennis Trade Show where more than 40 tennis equipment manufacturers and organizations exhibit their latest offerings. You can even try out new racquets and more on the adjacent DecoTurf Demo Court!

In addition to the 50-plus Symposium presentations by such industry notables as Nick Saviano, Pat Etcheberry, Don Henson, Chuck Kriese, Dr. Jim Loehr , Dave Miley of the ITF, Dr. Anne Smith, Bill Mountford of the LTA and Dr. Bryce Young, we also offer Professional Development Courses you can take for an additional fee. These courses each run about three hours, so make sure your tournament matches don't conflict.

Speaking of the tournament, the $25,000 Championships is your chance to PLAY tennis for a change. Show your competitive skills and perhaps take home some prize money!
PTR even offers a Spouse/Guest package to keep your honey busy while you attend the on-court and classroom presentations. We do not have children's activities during the day, but we do offer a children's program while you're enjoying the evening parties.

Don't forget about the Fast Feeding Contest! You could win $250 and a free registration to the 2010 PTR International Tennis Symposium
