As part of the bicommunal project carried out by the North Cyprus Tennis Federation and the US Embassy, Turkish Cypriot and Greek Cypriot tennis coaches have traveled to Florida for a 10-day training and experience-sharing program.
The five-member team will take part in various activities at the National Training Center of the United States Tennis Association (USTA) in Orlando. The team includes Mustafa Ülker, Çağlar İzkan, Özgü Samioğlu, Can Taşer, and Ali Tüzünkan, a computer programmer.
The coaches will learn about current approaches to tennis coaching, modern sports technologies, and wheelchair tennis. The program will also examine opportunities for young athletes to continue their tennis careers while studying at American universities.
The federation aims to bring the knowledge and experience gained in Florida back to Cyprus and share it with athletes and the tennis community. The project is expected to contribute to the development of tennis education on the island and to increase mutual understanding between the two communities.
