A factor in keeping high standards in training programmes is the level of rest a player gets. Travelling can be tiring and time consuming.

The Academy offers placements to players in family homes around Canterbury where they are cared for in a welcoming atmosphere. Host families are involved in tennis and are often parents of existing players who are aware of the demands that are placed on players and as such are supportive and understanding. Appeti Tennis has played host to players from Europe and Asia.
