Players will take the helm of their tennis academy and expertly guide athletes through training and tournaments to the dizzying heights of international success. 

New gameplay features include player creation, round robin tournaments, in-depth team management tools, and a new contract management and negotiation system. Among the numerous technical and graphical enhancements are improved match simulation AI, revamped animations, and much more. With the release of Tennis Manager 2022, the franchise looks set to secure its place alongside the greats of sports management simulation games. 

Put on the suit of a tennis coach and manager of a tennis academy. Immerse yourself in the most realistic tennis simulation, both on and off the court. Beat the odds and take control! From the junior circuit to the professional circuit, access over 2,000 tournaments. Among the 5,000 players present, find the talents that will lead your academy to glory.

Financial stability, contract negotiation, structural investments... Be clever in your management, reach your short and long term goals, and impress your board of directors. Surround yourself with the best staff (coaches, technical, physical, tactical and mental trainers, etc.) and design the training program that best suits your players' abilities, their expectations and your style! Perfect your speech in press conferences and show your board of directors, as well as your players, that you are the right man/woman for the job.

Thanks to the 3D engine, immerse yourself in the heart of the match and coach your player in real time! Are you more of a serve and volley player or a baseline filer? Exuberant or totally passive? Take control, impose your style and guide your player to the top.

“Tennis Manager 22 marks the start of an important new phase for the Tennis Manager series, a franchise that we’re committed to growing,” said Augustin Pluchet, CEO of Rebound CG. “Tennis Manager 21 exceeded our expectations to become the highest rated tennis game in nearly a decade, so we’re thrilled to be able to build on that and deliver fans an enriched and enhanced gameplay experience with Tennis Manager 22.”
