News From Jean-Philippe Fleurian
The launch of Le
Petit Tennis in other countries is following the development of the
portable tennis teaching system (Silver and Gold” in-school
business opportunity) which has been developed as a business
opportunity in hundreds of schools in the USA over the last six years.
Over that period, Le Petit Tennis which has introduced tennis to about
100.000 children every year within their familiar school environment
is now present through his licensees, in about 9 states.
The brand new “Club
Coaching” (Bronze) license has generated an
enthusiastic interest from club directors and coaches over the last 3
months. The “Bronze” license is a great addition to our existing
“Silver and Gold” in-school business license and I am very pleased to
report that the Club license is spreading in Clubs around the USA at a
very fast pace.
We added a
Training department to the license to provide a follow up and to
give the best chance to Clubs coaches to perform the new interactive
teaching in stories of Le Petit Tennis. Our training team is flying
all over the country to perform training courses at the club premises.

I am pleased to announce that we just signed a distributor agreement with Jean-Marc
Surdeau's organization which now represents Le Petit Tennis in FRANCE. Jean-Marc's organization will also be in charge of training coaches to the LPT systems. Jean Marc is a long time friend, certified (BE) tennis professional and Sports Psychologist.
My long time friend
Fabio Silberberg invited me to explain and demonstrate the Le Petit
Tennis system at his symposium in
Sao Paulo (Brazil)
the 23rd of November to 500 coaches coming from all over Brazil. This
will provide the insurance of the best possible start in this huge
tennis country. Long time licensee CLUB MED North America has
also agreed to expand Le Petit Tennis to it’s Brazilian
villages. Le Petit Tennis is already been taught at all CLUB MED
resorts Children’s Mini-Clubs in Northern America.
 The new Le Petit
Tennis 6” inflatable ball has been a tremendous
add to our existing Le Petit Store’s product line and has been seen by the
French Tennis Federation as “the missing product” that they were
looking for Mini-Tennis. That ball immediately allows beginner younger
children to perform rallies. I personally saw two 5 years old kids
rally against each other on a 36ft court for 1 hour strait without
stopping…imagine two 5 years olds rallying with each other !!!
We are pleased to
announce the addition of the “amazing” Club Management System
(CMS) to our existing line of Le Petit tennis Productivity
Software. Developed in the new Web 2.0 language, stunning web based
product which provides online reservations and a self easy to enter
web site. This tool will satisfy members, coaches and reduce
administrative time. We intend to give a full FREE usage of the
system to Clubs for 2 months. Lease it monthly with some packages
starting as low as $65.00 per month.
In the parents
module they will be able to get the 9 month progressive lesson of Le
Petit Tennis for Free. And they will also receive a FREE racquet &
equipment package when registering for Le Petit Tennis Club. Other
features include links for the parents to chose one of the affiliated
clubs and to enter age adapted social tournaments. Our system includes
a Talent detector which helps us get listing of talented children in
order to hand it out to National Associations or Private Academies.
The Coaching
Management Software (COACH) let coaches save time managing their
classes. They will choose to use integrated lesson plans or to enter
their own program and exercises with pictures and videos.
We are following the
guidelines of the wonderful “Play and Stay” campaign from the
ITF and the great new 36/60 campaign by the USTA. We plan to
launch a 36/60 method during the fall at the same time as the Coach
training courses. It will go along with the new “Discovery Tour”
tournament series which will include a new generation of ranking based
team tournaments.
The “Discovery
Tour” tournament series provides an incredible new income
generating approach for coaches by bringing more service to their
clients while working less. We are seeking to offer a safer and higher
living income for these hard working professionals. The tournament
systems (equipment kits + Software + Method) will be carry the
“RISK FREE” label to allow easy risk free trials.
Feel free to spread

day,
