Follow the GSPDP/ITF Touring Team across Europe
The Grand Slam Player Development Programme/ITF Touring Team is currently in Italy as part of its tour of Europe, during which the players will take part in training camps and compete at high-level junior events – including Grand Slams.
Throughout the tour, players and coaches will capture behind-the-scenes footage to give a flavour of what it is like to travel as part of the team, and the collective and individual development which takes place during their time together. The short-form videos will be posted across the ITF's social media (Twitter, Facebook and Instagram) channels.

The players spent the first few days of the tour at a training camp in Villanuova where, despite several rain interruptions, they were able to have several on-court practice sessions and work on their fitness, specifically their mobility, footwork and stretching.
They are now in Santa Croce sull’Arno and contesting their first event of the tour – a J300 tournament which will offer valuable clay-court practice ahead of J500 Milan next week and the Roland Garros Junior Championships in June.
