„Producing good tennis players is not enough for us. Developing a strong personality is the foundation for fully realizing one’s athletic potential. When we take on players, they can look forward to the complete package. We work with passion, full dedication, and a sharp eye for detail—because those details are what make the difference in the game.“
– Alexander Waske
Professionalism at every level is fundamental to us—whether on or off the court. This applies to tennis and fitness training, medical care, and education, both in terms of personal character and academic development.
This is what sets us apart: a familial and individualized approach to our players. Everyone knows everyone, our paths are short, and our communication is direct.
There is no success without intensive training and perfect preparation for competition. That’s why we live by one motto: Full throttle in every single session.
Our training consists of technical, tactical, physical, and mental elements. The player’s year is defined by four individual primary goals per category and approximately two to three short-term goals per quarter.
This mission statement illustrates our commitment to every player—whether professional or recreational. We are dedicated to helping them reach their full potential: athletically, personally, and intellectually.
Producing good tennis players is not enough for us. Developing a strong, grounded personality is the very foundation for fully realizing one’s athletic potential. When players join us, they can expect the ‚complete package.‘ We work with passion, full dedication, and a sharp eye for the small details—because in this game, those details are what make the difference.
For the personal and athletic development of our players, as well as for a successful collaboration between everyone involved, we believe four traits are essential: Social Competence, Courage, Perseverance, and a Strong Will.
These are the qualities we all strive for—coaches, players, experts, partners, and staff alike. Furthermore, we are committed to the values of fairness, tolerance, respect, and a sense of responsibility. Our goal is to lead by example and inspire those around us by living these values every day.
By doing so, we foster the characteristics in every player needed to master any life situation—even long after their tennis career has come to an end.
The TU Buffalo was born in 2010. It started with the initiative of our very first fitness coach, who began calling the player with the hardest work ethic, the sharpest focus, and the highest level of professionalism and intensity: 'The Buffalo.' We loved the idea immediately. Drawing inspiration from the US college tradition, where every university has its own mascot, we chose the buffalo to represent us. Today, the buffalo embodies all the principles and traits we stand for at Tennis-University.
