Monday 28 September 2015 11:28, UK
Rafa Nadal is looking to develop the future stars of the tennis world, as well as continuing his own glittering career.
Nadal will open his own academy in Mallorca next year and he graciously invited Sky's Jacquie Beltrao for a sneak peek behind the scenes as work continues towards the big opening.
The 29-year-old is keen that youngsters coming into the sport have somewhere they can concentrate on improving their education, as well as their performance on the court.
The £15m facility will have 26 courts, a sports museum, as well as classrooms and accommodation for 140 international students to develop their game as they continue their studies.
