Lucca Tennis - Special hosted week
22nd to 29th August 2020 (Adults Only) 

With Ian Campbell & Laura Middleton
Availability is limited on this special week when Tuscan Tennis Holidays founders, Ian Campbell and Laura Middleton, are on hand to offer a full concierge service.

Both are highly qualified coaches, speak fluent Italian and have extensive local knowledge and can help you get the very best, not only out of your tennis, but of every minute spent in your chosen location.

Whether you are looking for a special restaurant, wine, cultural experience or just a blistering forehand, Ian and Laura will do their very best to help.

These hosted weeks were the cornerstone of Tuscan Tennis Holidays when it began back in 1994 and have remained unfailingly popular ever since with a return rate of over 75%.

Details of this hosted week in Lucca are listed below but call/email Laura +44 141 576 7205 laura(at)tuscantennis(dot)com first to talk through your requirements. We are also happy to accommodate non tennis playing guests - see details below.

COACHING PHILOSOPHY
Everyone is treated as an individual, with an effort to find solutions suited to their game style, age, aspiration and ability level.
 
We do not teach shots in exactly the same way to everyone. Just look at the best players in the world to see the variety of styles.
 
What is important to us is that you are playing in a manner which is mechanically efficient so as not to cause injuries, as an improvement in mechanics will ultimately benefit a player's game.

The Doubles Clinic will include the following:
 
1) We will work on the playing situations that occur most frequently for your level. This could be both at the net, 1 up 1 back, both back or a combination of all 3!
 
2) The importance of positive and effective communication skills as a team i.e. how to interact with your partner both during and in between points
 
3) A consideration of everyone's role - server, receiver, server's partner and receiver's partner - and each team's positioning and movement during a point. (also covered during the weeks lessons)
