enJogo School of Sports, India’s leading sports training app, is delighted to announce a partnership with Nandan Bal Tennis Academies, one of the most renowned names in Indian tennis, to establish a world-class residential tennis academy. The program will be operational at two esteemed boarding schools, Vedas International School in Gurgaon (affiliated with the CBSE board) and Barnes School & Junior College in Maharashtra (affiliated with the ICSE board).
Nandan Bal, a tennis legend, represented India with pride. But his true calling came when he transitioned from player to coach. Guiding the Davis Cup and Fed Cup teams, he nurtured champions like Rohan Bopanna and Leander Paes, shaping their destinies on the international stage.
Beyond the trophies and accolades, Nandan’s impact extended to the hearts of those he touched. His unwavering belief in his protégés ignited a fire within them, driving them to achieve greatness. In recognition of his dedication, he received the esteemed Dhyan Chand Award for ‘Lifetime Achievement in Sports and Games’ in 2020.
Today, the enJogo-Nandan Bal Tennis Academies is a testament to his vision. It is a place where dreams are nurtured, where the echoes of his passion resonate in every swing of the racket.
The enJogo-Nandan Bal Tennis Academies will provide opportunities for aspiring tennis players between the ages of 9 and 18 to receive top-tier training and academics under one roof. With a comprehensive curriculum blending intensive tennis coaching and academic studies, the academy aims to nurture young talent while fostering holistic development.
Vedas International School, located near the Aravalli hills, offers an ideal environment for students to excel academically while receiving professional tennis training. Its affiliation with the CBSE board ensures a well-rounded education for students at the academy.
Situated amidst picturesque landscapes, Barnes School & Junior College in Maharashtra provides a serene backdrop for tennis enthusiasts to thrive. With its affiliation with the ICSE board, students can benefit from a structured academic program alongside their professional tennis pursuits.
The enJogo-Nandan Bal Tennis Academies will feature state-of-the-art facilities, highly qualified coaches, and personalized training programs to cater to the needs of players at all skill levels. The aim is to develop exceptional tennis players and well-rounded individuals.
“We are thrilled to partner with Nandan Bal Tennis Academies to establish the enJogo-Nandan Bal Tennis Academies at Vedas International School and Barnes School & Junior College,” said Kishore Taid, the CEO of enJogo.
