  -  Mental Toughness

Most players set personal limitations before they have even begun to explore their true potential. Therefore, the mind must be trained and reinforced every day in a super-positive manner. At RMTA we teach juniors to play and think like pros now.

The entire staff shares this philosophy and mindset. Whatever gifts a student has genetically, our philosophy is to take those gifts and build a game and mindset around them to give the student a real chance to live up to their full potential. The mind is the most powerful weapon in any player's game. Once a player realizes this, they're really on their way to maximizing their talent.

Student Opportunities

College Scholarships

Over 4 million dollars in college scholarships have been awarded to Academy students, and the staff at RMTA will help all players secure a school right for them.

Sponsorship / Endorsements

Over the years, Rick Macci and his staff have proven, both on and off the court, that RMTA students not only get better quicker, but achieve the premier endorsement opportunities worldwide.

The facts are simple with Macci players. At 13, Jennifer Capriati received one of the most lucrative apparel and racquet endorsements ever. At 14, Venus Williams, a Macci prodigy, signed a multi-million dollar deal with Reebok. At 14 as well, Monique Viele signed one of the largest deals ever prior to playing a professional match when she signed with Fila and Yonex. 15-year-old Tommy Ho became a multi-sponsored player with Fila and Kennex. Seventeen-year-old Serena Williams became the focal point of Puma when she signed a multi-year agreement.

With a proven track record of marketing and public relations capabilities worldwide with all of the major print and TV organizations over the past 15 years, Rick Macci can position players like no other coach. Companies trust and believe in Rick and his students. As has been proven over and over again, Macci can maximize a player's potential both on and off the court.
