La Bottega di Smrikve - Tennis School
Smrikve, August 2011
Just a bit more than two years ago I started to dedicate more and more to the Smrikve Tennis School development…
... it is a natural development of a passion started in 1986 when my parents built our first tennis court… and it is a natural development of a story started in 1996 when the Smrikva Bowl tennis talents story began…
...it was 2007 when I returned back home to Smrikve and started to put basis for “La Bottega” di Smrikve…
In September 2009 I attended PTR International Certification Workshop… and as the ancient Greek Plato said “the beginning is the most important part of any work”... Confucius, at the same time, on the other part of the Earth noted how “a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.”... :)
both of them are inspiring quotes and my dedication to this little school is driven by the above… many books read, videos watched, dedicated hours and courses followed are behind… and I am pleased to share a thing I beleive in and that was added to the name of the school…
...it is the story of La Bottega… :)
WHY LA BOTTEGA IN THE NAME OF A TENNIS SCHOOL…
During the Renaissance period La Bottega (the art and craft workshop) was the nursery site for the formation of the artists… and was probably the source of the Renaissance itself…
Inside La Bottega we can imagine pupils, still children, that began to take their first steps into the world of art… growing their talent side by side with the greatest artists that later on made history…
La Bottega was managed by a Master who was settting the work commissioned… which, in end, has been completed by students dividing the work according to the abilities…
The work of art was therefore not the result of a single artist but of an entire workshop although the teacher worked personally doing parts to make the work uniform and close to perfection…
The students entered as pupils the workshop to learn the technique and they perfected till they become the experts on their own… All the greatest artists we learn about in schools have grown up in the workshops described above…
The Renaissance workshop was not limited to being a fine school of design (the same as our tennis school is not a simple fine school of tennis) but has served as a cultural center in which the philosophy and scientific knowledge merged with the artistic technique…
For those who are not familiar with the period of Renaissance the video posted below could be of help to get some basics… ;)
The decision to add to the Smrikve Tennis School name the term La Bottega was driven by several elements…
• Smrikve was always envisaged as something more than tennis (library, culture, olive oil and wine,…)
• the fact that in Smrikve we have limited resources we decided to focus on the quality and individual approach…
• TALENTED PLAYERS THAT WE ACCEPT DURING THE YEAR FOR SHORTER PERIODS OF TIME AS GUESTS OF OUR SCHOOL ARE LINKED TO THE SMRIKVA BOWL NETWORK... the preference of the accepted players always go to the talents we had opportunity to meet during Smrikva Bowl or players recommended by the Smrikva Bowl Ambassadors… traditionally they have good understending of the Smrikve philosophy…
• in end, the same as in La Bottega, in our tennis school the older students (competitors) are trained to help the younger in their growth… thus knowledge sharing at all the levels is another of the pillars of La Bottega philosophy :)…
Our school is particular… and in the following you will find few details more about it… ;)

La Bottega di Tennis – SMRIKVE TENNIS SCHOOL… MOSTLY DEDICATED TO THE YOUNG TENNIS PLAYERS UP TO 14 YEARS OF AGE BUT NOT ONLY…
Thanks to the passion towards youngest players, that for sure Smrikva Bowl helped to grow in the last 16 years, the Smrikve Tennis Club is dedicating major attention to the youngest tennis players.
The Smrikve Tennis School (La Bottega) aims to provide our school members with the best existing knowledge and methods developed for instructing younger tennis players in their overall growth.
Historically Smrikve Tennis Club was dedicated to the tennis players from 5 to 10 years of age. Currently we are expanding our dedication to the kids up to 14 years of age.
Usually, the kids that are involved in sports activities or in music learn to efficiently allocate their time. Kids learn to become responsible individuals and this could be very important for any professional activity they may decide to pursue in the future.
In particular, in the tennis game there is a need to solve problems individually and it is a good way to develop good habits and also have fun.
Tennis is a lifetime sport from which all age groups find personal enjoyment, opportunities to mix with others socially, as well as the health benefits of vigorous exercise.
Smrikve coaching model is designed to introduce young children to the joys of playing tennis and to encourage them to fall in love with the game.
Munchkin tennis coaching model is designed for children between the ages of 5 to 8. This includes learning basis skills like throwing, catching the ball and other ball skills, hand-eye co-ordination tasks and tennis games for children. It is based on fun-filled movements and games, and not repetitive drills.
For the adults, the Smrikve Tennis School follows the PTR (Professional Tennis Registry) Standard Method developed by Dennis Van Der Meer – the PTR President and Founder. PTR Standard Method has been proved to be the most efficient method in allowing adults to start enjoying tennis after very few hours spent on the court.
For the high performing players, the Smrikve Tennis School follows the TT Method (Tennis Talents Method) developed by Luca Appino – the Tennis Talents Founder and Smrikva Bowl Golden Honorary Member. The four Pillars on which the method is based are: Sensation, Respiration, Timing and Hitting Point.
Miodrag Bozovic (Mimi) and Tomislav Bozovic (Tomo) are currently dedicating most of their time to teach kids more about tennis and sport in general.
Mimi and Tomo are both members of the largest global organization of tennis teachers and coaches named PTR – Professional Tennis Registry.
Miodrag Bozovic was a successful musician before he decided to pursue the Business Administration degree at Bocconi University in Milan. Later on he was a successful Investment Banker living in Italy, Spain and the US.
Today he is dedicating his time with passion to Smrikve, Smrikva Bowl organisation and to the youngest tennis players development.
Mimi is PTR Certified Professional MAP 2A.
Tomislav Bozovic was outstanding in gymnastics when he was younger and has dedicated many years to teach generations of pilots how to fly supersonic planes.
Today he is dedicating his time with passion to the youngest players that are willing to learn the basics about tennis and, what is even more important, to learn the values that sports transmit to people in general.
Tomo is PTR Certified Associate Instructor.
The additional talent resource we leverage in Smrikve is Miro Hrvatin (coach).
MAIN OBJECTIVES OF THE SMRIKVE TENNIS SCHOOL – LA BOTTEGA FOR TALENTED PLAYERS COULD BE SUMMARIZED IN THE FOLLOWING…
• teaching to become responsible individuals via tennis game,
• developing good habits via self respect, respect for others and respect for rules,
• focusing on the tennis players up to 14 years of age,
• leverage the Smrikva Bowl network to allow the growth of the potential professional tennis players.
Luca Appino is a long term Smrikva Bowl friend and Golden Honorary Member since this title was established. Luca was for many years Babolat Director Of Sports Marketing and contributed to built up Babolat from a string company to one of the largest racquet manufacturers in the World. He is also credited for signing contracts with players such as Rafael Nadal, Andy Roddick, Kim Clijsters, Carlos Moya, Dinara Safina, Nadia Petrova, Aravane Rezzai, etc.
In 2009 Luca Appino decided to start, in collaboration with Toni Nadal, to share his experience through TENNIS TALENTS advisory service. The main service is focused on helping junior talented players and their parents in building their professional tennis career. On his website www.tennis-talents.com you can learn more about it.
The first Tennis Talents program with foccus on the Pillars (1. Sensation – 2. Respiration – 3. Timing – 4. Hitting point) for the Smrikva Bowl 2010 players, families and coaches was held in Smrikve on 28th and 29th of June 2010.

LA BOTTEGA di SMRIKVE BOOKS...
In 2009 we started the building of the Smrikva Bowl Library. Since then each Smrikva Bowl player is requested to bring with him a cultural book that will remember his stay in Smrikve and will represent his culture of origin that guests of Smrikve will be able to consult, enjoy and discover.
Phisically Smrikva Bowl Library was arranged in August 2011 and is used both as Library space and “La Bottega” teaching room too… thus in our Library you can find in addition to Ambassador’s donated books the following tennis books and DVDs…
