Private Partnership Overview
Building the Performance Intelligence Layer for Tennis in China
135 Tennis Intelligence is seeking the right strategic partner to help introduce a smarter, process-based model for player development across tennis in China — supporting coaches and academies rather than competing with them.
The Opportunity
Tennis in China has grown dramatically, but there remains a major opportunity to improve how players are profiled, benchmarked and developed. Most systems still focus heavily on technical coaching outcomes and/or traditional statistics. 135 provides a different layer — one that helps coaches and players better understand patterns, decision-making and the structure of points. This creates a significant opportunity not just for better analysis, but for better education around how the game is played, understood and developed.
This is not about replacing coaching. It is about supporting the coaching process with clearer intelligence, stronger education and a scalable framework that can work across multiple academies, coaches and regions.
What 135 Delivers
- Education for coaches, parents and players
- Player profiling based on real matchplay
- Benchmarking against clear development standards
- Match analysis focused on point patterns, not just generic stats
- Technology supported by expert interpretation
- A pathway from entry-level profiling to deeper intelligence
Why this Model Works in China
Independent
135 does not compete with academies. It sits across the market as a support layer for development.
Scalable
The model can be introduced through academies, programs, events and education rather than one site at a time.
Educational
It gives coaches, parents and players a clearer language for development and a stronger process to follow.
Education as the Scaling Layer
For a model like this to work at scale, it must be understood — not just used.
135 combines performance intelligence with education, helping coaches, players and parents build a clearer understanding of point structure, decision-making and development priorities. This creates consistency across different environments and allows the model to scale beyond individual academies.
How 135 Education is Delivered
135 education combines practical demonstration with a simple framework that helps coaches, players and parents better understand how points are actually played and how development priorities can be identified.
Education can be delivered through coach workshops, academy presentations, federation sessions and parent-facing events, depending on the needs of the market.

The Right Partner
We are not looking for an academy competitor.
We are looking for a trusted local leader who can help introduce 135 across the market through relationships, education, commercial partnerships and strategic rollout.
The ideal partner has credibility in tennis, a broad network, commercial understanding, and the ability to help position 135 as a national development support layer.
What the Partner Does
- Open strategic doors in China
- Support positioning and trust-building
- Help shape local rollout and business structure
- Introduce key stakeholders in coaching and development
- Support events, education and market awareness
- Build long-term scale rather than one-off sales
A Long-Term Vision
Our goal is not simply to sell analysis. It is to help create a stronger, smarter development environment — one that supports players, coaches and programs through better performance intelligence.
We believe China is one of the most important growth markets in world tennis, and that the right partnership could create something meaningful at scale.
