The GIS athletes are coached at a local level by their individual coaches as well as through National Squad sessions. On a 4-6 week basis the athletes undergo integrated coaching sessions at a local level. These sessions incorporate technical work, strength and conditioning and physiotherapy support as the athlete is working on court. It involves a team of people (coach, strength and conditioning coach and physiotherapist) all working together to with the athlete to ensure that they are training as efficiently and effectively as possible.

The athletes use various venues around Grampian but have a particular supported access agreement with Westburn Indoor Tennis Centre (Aberdeen City Council).
