(Signature) ……………………………………………………………………………… 1 Abstract Elite tennis players are required to perform on a variety of tennis court surfaces which differ in mechanical characteristics, such as friction and hardness, influencing their performance and risk of injury. To understand the influence of surfaces on performance and injury risk, three studies were conducted to investigate tennis players’ perceptions and biomechanical responses during tennis-specific movements on different court surfaces. In study 1, tennis players perceptions of acrylic and clay courts were identified following a thematic inductive analysis of semi-structured interviews (n = 7) to develop of a series of visual analogue scales (VAS) to quantify perceptions during studies 2 and 3. Perceptions of predictability of the surface and players’ ability to slide and change direction emerged, in addition to anticipated perceptions of grip and hardness. Study 2 aimed to examine the influence of court surfaces and prior clay court experience on perceptions and biomechanical characteristics of tennis-specific skills.

    TENNIS VOCABULARY All – indicates the scores are level. For example, ’15 all’ means that both players have a score of 15 Ball boy/girl – professional tournaments use young boys or girls to collect tennis balls during a game Ball change – in tournaments the balls are changed after a certain number of games to ensure they stay as bouncy as possible Baseline – the line marking the front and back of a tennis court Bounce – when a tennis ball hits the ground, it goes back into the air - the ball has bounced. During a match, the ball often becomes less bouncy and needs changing for a new ball Deuce – if a score gets to 40-40, the score is called deuce – at this stage, the winner of the game is the first player to now win two points in a row Doubles – a four-player game Down-the-line – a shot that travels parallel to and along the sideline Drive – a hard, straight shot often used to pass an opponent at the net Drop shot – a gently played shot that just gets over the net so the other player can’t reach it Ends – each side of the court (that begins with a baseline) Fault – a serve which hits the net and / or lands outside the service box Foot fault – this happens when a server’s foot touches the ground in front of the baseline or the wrong side of the centre mark (on the baseline) before the player hits the ball Game – a player wins a game if, generally, they are the first player to win four points Ground stroke – a shot that is made after the ball has bounced Half-volley – a shot hit just as the ball bounces Let – when a serve hits the top of the net and lands within the service box, it is known as a ‘let’ and the server must serve again Lob – a shot played deliberately high into the air to land at the back of the opponent’s court Love – a score of zero points in a game or zero games in a set Match – Usually, in men’s tennis, the first player to win three sets wins the match.

  • Biomechanics of a Backhand Dropshot
    BIOMECHANICS OF A BACKHAND DROP SHOT Felipe Matsunaga April 21, 2011 BIOL438 WHAT IS A DROP SHOT? Groundstrokes: Most common shot where the racquet head hits the ball in a “flat” collision. Surface of racquet head is perpendicular to the direction ball will go. After it is hit, it continues to travel in a straight direction after it bounces. Mainly hit from the baseline during rallys. “FLAT” GROUNDSTROKE WHAT IS A DROP SHOT? (CONT.) Drop Shots: Racquet head grazes the ball in an angled or slashing motion (not flat). This gives the ball backspin/underspin so that it tends to travel in another direction after it bounces. Usually backwards or sideways. Shot is designed to bounce near the net and quickly bounce a second time Effective when opponent is on the baseline or not quick or agile. Can be hit from anywhere on the court. SLASHING/ANGLED DROP SHOT STROKE MOTION BREAKDOWN Like many other swinging movements, the kinetic chain also applies to the drop shot: Leg Drive Hip Rotation Trunk Rotation Shoulder and Upper Arm Rotation Forearm Extension and Pronation Before the kinetic chain starts, regardless of stroke, players prepare for their swing by cocking their shoulders and arms. Stores elastic energy that will later be used for the shot. MOTIONS OF THE DROPSHOT OBJECTIVES Calculate the amount of kinetic energy that the associated muscles generate to execute the drop shot. Calculate how much of this kinetic energy is transferred to the ball. Determine how much energy is lost following the collision and how does this compare with the backhand groundstroke.

  • Year 9 This Will 30-40 Minutes
    Why do we have knowledge organisers? Your knowledge organisers help you to be successful in many ways. Firstly, they make clear the key elements needed in a topic to have an excellent understanding of it. If you know these elements, your teacher will help you to understand them. What are my teachers’ expectations of me? In year 7 and 8 your teachers will give you homework that means you will be spending 20 minutes a week learning information from your knowledge organiser for each subject. In year 9 this will 30-40 minutes. Teachers will test you once a week to make sure that you are completing the homework and remembering your knowledge. Your knowledge organiser exercise book is where you will complete your practising. Each time you revise and practise, you should put the subject as the title and the date. Rule off when you have completed your revising for that subject. Teachers and form tutors will be regularly checking that you are revising. How will my teachers use them? Each subject will set homework once a week that will help you to learn your knowledge organiser. They will also test you once a week on certain parts to see how well you have remembered it. Research tells us that this practising is a really good way of helping you make sure that the knowledge stays in your memory. Over time you will build on this knowledge to make sure that you know everything you need to for your subject. Sometimes you may have high stakes quizzes, where teachers will set a certain score that you have to reach to be successful.
