The Functional Tennis Podcast Fabio Molle

I'm just back from the IMG Future Stars event in Greece where I saw some of the world's best 12 years in action.
Last year I did a special episode on 14 things that make these kids special, this year I decided to change it up and better understand the journey these kids are on.
What stood out is how hard it is, you probably already know this but I found it interesting speaking to the parents and coaches about this.
I've put together some of my learnings in this rare solo episode.
If you are a parent this is an episode for you.
I hope you find it useful.

In a few days, I'm off to Greece for the IMG Future Stars which brings together 48 of the World's best boys and girls along with their parents and coaches. I get to spend the week with them observing, learning and interacting with them.
We've many new listeners and this was one of our top episodes into 2023 so I thought this was a timely episode to bring back up.
I hope you enjoy it and if you've heard it before it's a good refresher.

The title says it all, Tennis is difficult. Guest host Dave O'Hare kicks off his first-ever episodes as a host with Freddie Nielsen. Freddie is a former pro from Denamk, a Wimbledon doubles champ and the current Danish Davis Cup Captain.
It’s a great discussion with thoughts on compassion, anger, perfection, acceptance, competing, disagreeing and more.
It's a bit different to my usual conversations but its great to see 2 experienced tennis people chatting with plenty of lessons to learn.
I hope you enjoy it
