Tennis legend Rafa Nadal has announced a new line of sports centres - the Rafa Nadal Tennis Centre.

The first project is due to open in Mexico in November 2018 in collaboration with Palladium Hotel Group.

The centre will be part of the facilities of Palladium Hotel Group’s brand-new luxury development in Costa Mujeres, located to the north of Cancun, comprising the five-star adults-only TRS Coral Hotel and five-star family-friendly Grand Palladium Costa Mujeres Resort & Spa.

This new line of sports centres complements the Rafa Nadal Academy by Movistar, which opened in May 2016 in Mallorca and where more than 2,000 players have already passed through.

The new Rafa Nadal Tennis Centre Costa Mujeres will offer tennis programmes for all levels and ages to hotel guests and local residents.

The programmes have been developed from an exclusive training system, based on the experience acquired by Rafa Nadal and his technical team for more than fifteen years of his professional career on the ATP circuit and based on the knowledge developed at the Rafa Nadal Academy by Movistar.

Rafa Nadal Tennis Centre Costa Mujeres will have eight clay tennis courts, a football pitch, one paddle court, a gym for warm-ups, stretches and basic training, a Rafa Nadal exhibition, a premium sports shop, and a bar/cafeteria with TV screens so guests can watch tennis and other sports.

TRS Hotel Coral and Grand Palladium Costa Mujeres Resort & Spa opens in autumn 2018.
