Voyager’s High Performance Director Luke Bourgeois shared key insights from his experience on the inaugural Tennis Australia Performance Coach USA Tour of Florida.
Luke travelled to world leading academies to meet key coaching experts in Miami, Delray Beach, Sarasota, Orlando and Tampa.
Key learnings:
- Data continues to support the direct correlation between matchplay volume and a players level
- US academies demand a higher volume and intensity of training hours
- Strong focus on set game styles with positive reinforcement based on player strengths
- Importance of careful management of physical development around a player’s physicality and growth spurts to avoid injuries
Our mission is to a deliver world class tennis program and to support our athletes, enabling them to achieve their full potential on and off the court.
The Voyager webinar series provides tennis insights from industry experts on matchplay strategy, physical training, injury prevention, sports psychology, US College Guidance, mentoring and parent education.
