A few words on Coaching

A topic that still sees a lot of hesitation and that is not always handled in a linear manner, due to preconceptions that are not relevant to modernity and therefore are outdated.

Coaching should be structured using a basic method, the philosophy adopted by the Coach, to be put together with the characteristics of the player.

The first factor to be considered is the general analysis of the athlete, that is to the an overview of all of the aspects that form his performance, from technical-tactical, physical, mental, to try to understand his strong points, his weak points and consequently what kind of playing plan he should be attributed in order to maximise his results, all of this in a work programme that also includes the involvement of other training companions within the technical session.

A personalised training system leads to the achievement of concrete and structured objectives, as the athlete undertakes new and gradual awareness and achieves greater mental balance while pursuing his activities.

A good Coach, therefore, must necessarily take charge of the situation through the transmission of his ideas, instilling trust and finding the most adequate learning channel.

In our Team we adopt this setting by following our players in a capillary form, accompanying them towards the set goals.

Stefano’s words

“Defeat is a wonderful thing, it helps you understand that a higher exist than yours exists and you must work if you want to achieve it.”

“Before shaking your opponents hand, make sure that you have given your very best.”

“Your talent is getting up every day and continuing to fight with enthusiasm.”

“To improve you do not have to train with someone that is better than you, but every time you train you must give your very best.”

“I have never seen a genius, but I have seen people that work hard to achieve results.”

 “It is not enough to be aware of the problems of an athlete, but we need to find the right channels to solve them.”

 “I always remind my students of one thing: it is not important to win, but it is important to learn.”

Our principles

Far-sightedness means success

We truly believe that an athlete can achieve his objectives only if he looks towards the future and is aware of the fact that every day he spends on the courts will represent a vital stop towards the construction of what he wants to become.

All for one and one for all

Being part of a project is also being among people with values, ready for mutual support and to provide new forms of serenity to their companions, even at the most difficult of times. Together we can go far.

Enthusiasm is the real push towards sacrifice

Having the opportunity of passing our time enjoying tennis to the full is truly a privilege. The best way to appreciate it is to interpret every moment of training with renewed abnegation, whether you are a coach or student. If there is passion and fun, you will automatically continue, you will stop counting the minutes and you will enjoy every second just like a precious source of personal enrichment.
