The FGA Method - Fred Gil coaching in action

The FREDGIL Methodology

By Daniel Cruz, Technical Diretor at FGA and developed through years of professional competition and refined through coaching excellence.

The Four Pillars of Player Development

At the core of the FGA Method are the Four Pillars: Technical, Tactical, Physical, and Mental. Every session integrates these dimensions to create complete athletes — players who move efficiently, think strategically, stay resilient under pressure, and execute with precision.

Movement as the Foundation

Every shot begins with movement. The FGA approach teaches players to control space, anticipate patterns, and position effectively in all phases of play — defense, transition, and offense. Footwork becomes the link between tactical understanding and technical execution.

Purposeful Training System

Our methodology combines the proven structure of the Spanish School with Fred Gil's ATP experience. Training is designed to build mastery through repetition, guided progression, and situational play, ensuring that every player develops strong fundamentals and intelligent decision-making on court.

The ultimate goal is to develop players who know who they are on court. Through structured routines, performance challenges, and mindset development, each athlete builds a clear playing identity and confidence that transfers beyond tennis — into competition, growth, and life.
