The MCTA Signs its First
Player!
 The
Monte Carlo Tennis Academy (“MCTA”) is
thrilled to confirm the arrival of its first
player Anna Fitzpatrick, from Sheffield,
Great Britain. Anna is seventeen and is
currently a full time member of the Leeds
LTA National Academy.
Anna started playing tennis
at the age of five and her accolades include
winning the U14 European Tennis Association
singles in Portugal, the U15 British
Nationals and the U18 British Grand Prix.
She is a tough player loving nothing more
than to hit aggressively both from the back
of the court and at the net. Director of
Coaching David Sammel believes she has the
right game plan to make a big impact on the
tour in years to come:
“Anna
has a clear attacking game plan that is
maturing well. This style of play will stack
up perfectly in the pro game once she fills
out and mentally accepts the level of
constant aggression needed for the highest
levels in tennis.”
Anna plays right handed and
her favourite surface is acrylic. Whilst
not playing tennis she is a keen swimmer,
enjoying scuba diving and snorkelling as
well as listening to music in her spare
time.
The MCTA officially starts on
September 4th 2006. It is a
unique, elite international Academy based at
the Monte Carlo Country Club for seven weeks
of the year and spending the remainder of
the time on tour, playing in the junior and
senior circuits. The Academy chooses to
work with no more than ten players, aged 16
upwards and only those who aspire to be the
best they can possibly be both on and off
the court.
