Our accommodations for the week will be at Il Leccio, an agriturismo country house in the enchanting hills of the Chianti Classico region, 1/2 hour south of Florence. There is a swimming pool with magnificent views of the Tuscan vineyards and olive groves. All bedrooms have private baths. Breakfast will be served each morning.

There will be 5 mornings of tennis, Monday through Friday. After a warm up, participants will be divided into groups by ability. Each day, a different stroke will be highlighted and there will be ample time for round robins. At the end of the week, there will be round robins with members of the club.
