  • Tennis Study Guide
    TENNIS STUDY GUIDE HISTORY Mary Outerbridge is credited with bringing tennis to America in the mid-1870’s by introducing it to the Staten Island Cricket and Baseball Club. In 1880 the United States Lawn Tennis Association (USLTA) was established, Lawn was dropped from the name in the 1970’s and now go by (USTA). Tennis began as a lawn sport, but later clay, asphalt and concrete became more standard surfaces. The four most prestigious World tennis tournaments include: the U.S. Open, Australian Open, French Open, and Wimbledon . In 1988, tennis became an official medal sport. Tennis can be played year round, is low in cost, and needs only two or four players; it is also suitable for all age groups as well as both sexes. EQUIPMENT The only equipment needed to play tennis consists of a racket, a can of balls, court shoes and clothing that permits easy movement. The most important tip for beginners to remember is to find a racket with the right grip. The net hangs 42 inches high at each post and 36 inches high at the center. RULES The game starts when one person serves from anywhere behind the baseline to the right of the center mark and to the left of the doubles sideline. The server has two chances to serve legally into the diagonal service court. Failure to serve into the court or making a serving fault results in a point for the opponents. The same server continues to alternate serving courts until the game is finished, and then the opponent serves.

A stereophotogrammetric system (Smart-D, BTS, 8 cameras, 550 Hz) was used to track the table tennis racket during cross-court (CC) and long-line (LL) shots. Ten national level players completed ten CC and ten LL top spin strokes responding to a robot machine. The racket motion throughout the shot showed specific technical characteristics: the minimum height of the racket was detected during the backswing phase; racket height at the end of backswing phase (maximal distance racket/table) was higher than the minimum; height at Citation: Malagoli Lanzoni, I.; the racket maximum velocity (ball/racket impact) was greater than the net’s height.

No. 2 seed Kevin Anderson, who has already clinched a career-high 44 wins in 2015, could surpass 1,000 aces on the season against unseeded American Steve Johnson. The ATP World Tour’s ace leader, No. 7 seed Ivo Karlovic, meets a resurgent Ernests Gulbis, who is seeking his first semi- final appearance of the season. Also playing for his first semi in over a year is Lukas Rosol, who looks to build off his upset of No. 4 seed Jo-Wilfried Tsonga with another of No. 6 seed Gael Monfils. No. 1 seed David Ferrer takes an 8-0 FedEx Head 2 Head record (17-2 in sets) against No. 8 seed Fabio Fognini into their quarter-final match. The in-form Italian Fognini won the Australian Open doubles title with countryman Simone Bolelli and has posted strong singles results late in the season, just as his fiancée Flavia Pennetta is doing on the women’s tour. Fognini watched from Arthur Ashe Stadium as Pennetta captured the US Open title on Sept.

  • All Tennis Grips Explained Clearly
    All Tennis Grips Explained Clearly The tennis grips you use have a big influence on your style of play. This is because the tennis grip is one of the factors that determines how much of spin you put and how much of pace you generate. One grip is not better than another. You should select a grip that helps your style of play. If you are an aggressive player, choose a grip that allows you to hit through the ball and put more pace (think Federer). If you are more of a consistent player, choose a grip that allows you to put more spin (think Nadal). The tennis racket grip is divided into 8 bevels as shown in the diagram. The type of grip depends on which bevel the Index Knuckle and Heel Pad rest. All of the tennis grip diagrams below assume that you are right handed. If you are left handed just reverse the instructions. Serve Continental Grip Use this for the serve, volley, overhead, and slice (all the pros do). The Index Knuckle and Heel Pad rest on bevel 2. Forehand There are three forehand grips. Each grip has its own natural height at which you would contact the ball. The higher the natural contact point, the more naturally you hit across the back of the ball from bottom to top, and more top spin you put on the ball at the expense of pace. This will be clearer as you read about the three forehand grips. Eastern Forehand Grip Index Knuckle and Heel Pad rest on the 3rd bevel.

  • The Ballad of Kiss My Ace!
    The Ballad of “Kiss My Ace”- A Women’s USTA 2.5 tennis team- Club Fit Briarcliff Westchester, Ny If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster, And treat those two impostors just the same By Jeff Scott- Club Fit Pro and 2012 Team Coach A Floating Ball was coming down our Southern “Ace” team’s “heartland” of the tennis court, during our match point for the deciding and final match of the Eastern Sectional Championship tournament. Marcie lunged for it with her backhand two-fisted volley, and steered the ball deep into the home Northern team’s heartland, apparently smack on the baseline! A simultaneous shriek of joy erupted from both Jodi and Marcie, as the match was hard fought, close as can be and deep into the super tiebreak. After all, it was a competition against the team that had clinched the tournament and was heading off to vie for the National Title. The win against the tournament champion certainly would have been gratifying, and would have catapulted the Southern Aces into second place, a very respectable finish to a Cinderella season by unified and determined group of Westchester tennis warrior women! But no! Defeat was snatched from the jaws of victory by the most unlikely of sources- a defiant finger wagged in the air! With an air of duplicity, an admonition and an over-rule were issued simultaneously with one, exultation stealing gesture. The infamous finger belonged not to one of the Northern’s opponents, but to a one of the few local officials assigned to monitor the tournament.

    THIS CONTENT IS A PART OF A FULL BOOK - TENNIS FOR STUDENTS OF MEDICAL UNIVERSITY - SOFIA https://polis-publishers.com/kniga/tenis-rukovodstvo-za-studenti/ A brief history of tennis 1. Origin and development of the game Ball games were popular in ancient Rome and Greece under the name of a spherical "ball game". In the 11 th and 12 th centuries, the games of "Jacko del Palone" and "Jaco de la Corda" were mentioned, which resembled modern tennis (Todorov 2010; Mashka, Shaffarjik 1989). In the 14 th century, outdoor and indoor courts started to be built in France, where the game of "court – tennis" was played, which was later renamed "palm game", that, dependent on being played inside or outside, was called "short tennis" and " long tennis" (Penchev 1989). Antonio Scaino da Salò’s book "Treatise on the game of the ball" (1555) describes the game instruments - a racquet and a ball - a tight ball of wool, wrapped in leather. It was struck with the palm of the hand, wrapped in a leather belt and a wooden case. A glove was used as well to protect against pain and traumas (Mashka, Shaffarjik 1989). The "court - tennis" game became popular predominantly amongst the nobles in Europe under the name of "Jeu de paume" – palm game, played both indoors and outdoors. “Mirabo” hall, part of the famous Versailles Palace that was transformed at that time by the Sun King - Louis XIV into a main residence of the French kings, exists to this day and had served for that purpose.
