Athletes of world excellence in a unique territory

Tuscany Camp is a top-class facility aimed at both professional and recreational runners, providing medical and physiotherapeutic assistance along with touristic reception for sport enthusiasts. Tuscany Camp is located at the very heart of Tuscany, 7km from the city of Siena. The training paths spread across the beautiful countryside of Val di Merse, in the municipality of Sovicille. Our Olympic athletes live and train every day amid these unique landscapes.

Top-level athletics

Tuscany Camp is the place in which young talents, amateurs and full-fledged track and field champions can train in groups amid stunning scenarios, supported by a highly experienced medical and physiotherapeutic team. Under the guidance of Coach Giuseppe Giambrone, Tuscany Camp’s athletes achieved important results at global level over the past few years.

Medical & Physiotherapeutic Assistance

Tuscany Camp provides the athletes with a full medical and physiotherapeutic service, thanks to the presence of an on-site Medical Centre hosting 35 specialists, including three physiotherapists and an osteopath who are at the athlete’s full disposal. The San Rocco Medical Centre represents a landmark in healthcare assistance for the citizens of the whole Province of Siena.

The Team

The Tuscany Camp project was born out of an idea of Coach Giuseppe Giambrone, with the support of Professor Marco Bonifazi, Sports Medicine Doctor, Physiologist and Technical Coordinator of the Italian Swimming Federation Research Centre, along with Professor Tommaso Ticali, who has coached a number of accomplished champions over the years and was the mentor of Mr Giambrone himself.

A growing number of sport enthusiasts from all across the world choose to spend their holidays in highly qualified sport training centres such as Tuscany Camp. Tuscany Camp offers runners the possibility to spend training-oriented yet pleasant holidays, while constantly monitoring their health conditions in a top-class Sports Medicine Centre.

Uganda Camp

The project was born after Mr Giambrone’s experience in Uganda, more specifically at the Bukwo Training Camp, a suggestive location that gave birth to numerous champions. Nowadays, Tuscany Camp supports the Camp both financially and technically, in order to offer young talents a chance to reveal themselves, followed by on-site specialised coaches.

Tuscany Camp trains its athletes to achieve great results in athletics competitions as well as in their own lives. Tuscany Camp constantly supports its great Ugandan champions in their integration process within Italy’s social fabric and the management of their professional careers.
