 The Guide to
Coaching Sport's objective is to "coach the coaches" so that you can
continue to help your child develop tennis skills. You will learn new
techniques and drills that will enhance your child's ability to be
successful. We cover practice organization, coaching philosophy, and other
fundamentals. We do all of this with one underlying emphasis: MAKE THE
GAME FUN! Our goal is not to turn your young player into a professional,
but to give him or her the tools for success that will make the game more
enjoyable for the both of you. If tennis is your game add this Web to your
favorites right now.
Different players want to accomplish specific
things. Some players would like to become elite novice competitors. Many of
us would just like to have the opportunity to rally for six or seven hits.
Weekend tennis players should not spend much time on perfecting certain
shots such as the top spin or lob; however, the different grips are
important aspects.
If you know the three different grips and
understand the benefits of them, then you will become a decent player with
limited practice.
To become a top-notch player, you need to
spend several hours trying to perfect the top spin. Also
players at higher levels must master how to hit the ball when it is on it's
upward flight. If you are only concerned with being the
recreational player then you will probably want to focus more on hitting the
ball when it is on it's way down. This will allow you to control your shots.
Stay in the game . Have fun with the sport of a lifetime.
