Saddlebrook Prep

Saddlebrook Preparatory School’s world-class amenities, top-notch training facilities and strong academic focus set us apart from other tennis or golf boarding school programs, as well as other Tampa, Florida hotels. Founded in 1993, Saddlebrook Prep is fully accredited through the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Council on Accreditation and School Improvement (SACS-CASI) and the Florida Council of Independent Schools (FCIS). The high-level college preparatory academics program caters to student-athletes from grades 3 through 12 with a small student-to-teacher ratio of 10-to-1. Housing, dining, golf and tennis training, academics, and recreational activities all take place inside our secure nature preserve and community.

Golf & Tennis Focus

Saddlebrook Prep’s student-golfers are coached on the resort’s two 18-hole Arnold Palmer-designed championship golf courses. Tennis players train daily with their coaches on our 43 tennis courts with a ratio of no more than 4-1 players to a pro training on each court. Both sports programs ensure that students participate in local, regional and national tournaments as part of the Saddlebrook Prep Team or individually.
