Overview
- The complex features 12 courts—six indoor and six outdoor—with indoor clearance over 10 meters, plus access to upgraded CREPS de Vichy facilities.
- A first boarding cohort of 12 players, ages 13 to 16 (four girls, eight boys), balances schooling with daily training.
- The FFT will use the center for elite player development, high‑level coach education, France team camps, and national or international events.
- The launch follows rapid domestic growth to about 500,000 practitioners, more than 105,000 licenses, and roughly 3,200 courts as of September.
- The federation presents the center and a €85 million, 10‑year loan program as steps to narrow the gap with Spain and Argentina, with France currently having three women in the global top 100 and no men.
