Understand how points are actually constructed
The 135 Framework separates each point according to the shots played by the server (135), the returner (246) and in extended rallies (7+).
This reveals the tactics and strategies that work for individual players, and the ones that require attention in training. The aim is development through timely analysis.
1–3–5
Server
The first three shots played by the server during a point.
2–4–6
Returner
The first three shots played by the returner during a point.
7+
Extended rallies
Long rally patterns, sequences and strategies.

Let’s Discuss What Could Work for Your Academy
Every academy is different. We can help you identify the most practical way to introduce 135 within your existing coaching program.
Arrange an Intro MeetingFrom Data to Development
Three Things Have to Happen
Great player development does not come from collecting more data. It comes from measuring the right things, identifying what matters and delivering the message effectively.
Measure the Right Things
Collect evidence that genuinely reflects player performance.
Identify What Matters
Interpret the evidence to identify the most important development priorities.
Deliver the Message
Communicate those priorities in a way that players, parents and coaches can act on.
Built Around Your Program
A Flexible Fit for Your Academy
135 works alongside your existing coaching structure, providing the evidence, interpretation and ongoing player profiling that can be difficult to deliver within normal coaching hours.
You choose how deeply 135 is integrated into your program.
Player Add-On
Individual players and families access 135 profiling, match analysis and Player Sessions alongside your existing coaching services.
Program Integration
135 becomes part of your player pathway, with selected players receiving structured profiling and ongoing analysis throughout the development cycle.
Explore program integration →Academy Partnership
135 supports a broader performance system across your academy, connecting player evidence, Analyst interpretation and coaching priorities.
Turning Evidence Into Development
Data Only Works When Three Things Happen
Collecting statistics is not enough. Performance information becomes valuable when the right evidence is measured, correctly interpreted and communicated in a way the player can use.
Collect the Right Evidence
Not all tennis data has the same developmental value. 135 measures the decisions, patterns and outcomes that provide meaningful evidence about how a player performs.
Interpret What Matters
An Accredited 135 Performance Analyst examines the evidence, adds context and identifies the development information that matters most for the player.
Deliver the Right Message
Analysis must be communicated clearly and constructively. Each review focuses attention on a small number of practical priorities rather than overwhelming the player with statistics.
A Specialist Role
Accredited 135 Performance Analysts
Every integrated 135 program is supported by a Performance Analyst trained in the 135 methodology, player-development framework and communication process.
The Analyst supports the coaching environment without replacing the judgement or responsibilities of the coach.
Train an Academy Analyst
Your academy can nominate a suitable coach or staff member to complete 135 accreditation and fulfil the Performance Analyst role within your program.
This develops specialist capability inside the academy while maintaining consistent 135 methodology and service standards.
Work With a Licensed Analyst
Where an academy does not wish to deliver the role internally, a licensed 135 Performance Analyst can provide the service within an agreed local area.
The academy, coaches and players receive the same structured process without needing to recruit or train an internal specialist.
One Methodology. One Standard.
Whether the Analyst works inside your academy or operates as an independent 135 licensee, every specialist is trained to interpret and communicate player intelligence using the same framework, standards and development principles.
Implementation
How Integration Works
The structure is adapted to your players, coaching team and existing programs.
Understand Your Program
We begin with your coaching structure, player groups, objectives and preferred level of integration.
Select the Delivery Model
Together we determine whether the Analyst role will be delivered internally or through a licensed 135 specialist.
Begin Player Profiling
Selected players begin structured profiling, benchmarking and ongoing match analysis.
Connect Intelligence to Coaching
Analysts, players and coaches use the evidence to support clearer priorities and long-term development.
What 135 Adds to Your Program
Dedicated Performance Analyst support
Consistent player profiling using the 135 Framework
Objective individual benchmarking
Clear development priorities for each reporting period
Better communication between coaches, players and parents
Structured measurement of player development over time
Analyst collaboration aligned with your coaching philosophy

A Sustainable Academy Service
More Value for Players. A New Service for Your Academy.
Performance analysis can become an additional service within your existing program rather than another fixed academy overhead.
A Better Player Experience
Players receive specialist profiling, interpretation and ongoing guidance alongside their existing coaching.
An Additional Academy Service
Your academy can offer structured performance intelligence without having to develop the technology, methodology and systems independently.
A Sustainable Delivery Model
Whether delivered by an academy Analyst or a licensed local Analyst, the model is designed to be revenue-neutral at minimum and capable of becoming a profitable addition to your program.
