Prof. College Of Agriculture Naigaon Bz. Dist. Nanded. ABSTRACT : Tennis is a racket sport that can be played independently against a solitary adversary (singles) or between two groups of two players each (copies). Every player utilizes a tennis racket that is hung with rope to strike an empty elastic ball secured with felt over or around a net and into the rival's court. The object of the diversion is to move the ball so that the rival can't play a legitimate return. The player who can't restore the ball won't pick up a point, while the contrary player will. KEYWORDS : solitary adversary , dimensions of society , Tennis. INTRODUCTION Tennis is an Olympic game and is played at all dimensions of society and at all ages. The game can be played by any individual who can hold a racket, including wheelchair clients. The advanced round of tennis started in Birmingham, England, in the late nineteenth century as grass tennis.[1] It had close associations both to different field (garden) amusements, for example, croquet and bowls just as to the more established racket sport today called genuine tennis. Amid the majority of the nineteenth century, actually, the term tennis alluded to genuine tennis, not grass tennis: for instance, in Disraeli's epic Sybil (1845), Lord Eugene De Vere reports that he will "go down to Hampton Court and play tennis.

  • Falkland Palace Teacher’S Information
    Falkland Palace Teacher’s information Falkland Palace was a country residence of the Stewart kings and queens. The palace was used as a lodge when the royal family hunted deer and wild boar in the forests of Fife. Mary, Queen of Scots, spent some of the happiest days of her life here ‘playing the country girl in the woods and parks’. Built between 1501 and 1541 by James IV and James V, Falkland Palace replaced earlier castle and palace buildings dating from the 12th century. The roofed south range contains the Chapel Royal, and the East Range contains the King’s and Queen’s rooms, both restored by the Trust with period features, reproduction 16th-century furnishings, painted ceilings and royal arms. Within the grounds is the original Royal tennis court, the oldest in Britain, built in 1539. The garden, designed and built by Percy Cane between 1947 and 1952, contains herbaceous borders enclosing an attractive wide lawn with many varieties of shrubs and trees and a small herb garden. The palace still belongs to Her Majesty the Queen but is maintained and managed by The Trust in its role as Deputy Keeper. A school visit to Falkland Palace offers excellent opportunities for cross-curricular work and engaging with the Curriculum for Excellence: • An exciting Living History programme, based on the visits of Mary Queen of Scots to Falkland Palace around 1565, led by NTS staff: - a tour of the palace when your pupils will meet ‘Mary Queen of Scots’. - costumes and role play (within the palace tour). - followed by an opportunity to explore the gardens and real tennis court (teacher led).

  • George Washington Wilson (1823-1893)
    George Washington Wilson (1823-1893) Photographically innovative and entrepreneurial in business, Wilson was the most notable, successful and prolific stereo-photographer in Scotland and perhaps the entire UK. Having trained in Edinburgh as an artist, he worked as a miniature portrait painter and art teacher in Aberdeen from 1848. He started experimenting with photography in 1852, probably realising that it could potentially supplant his previous profession. In a short-lived partnership with Hay, he first exhibited stereoviews in 1853 at the Aberdeen Mechanics' Institution. A commission to photograph the construction of Balmoral Castle in 1854-55 led to a long royal association. His photos were used in the form of engravings for Queen Victoria's popular book “My Highland Journal”. His best-selling carte-de-visite of her on a pony held by Brown (judiciously cropped to remove other superfluous retainers) fuelled the gossip surrounding this relationship. His portrait studio in Aberdeen provided steady cashflow and in 1857, to promote his studio, he produced a print grouping together famous Aberdonians, one of the earliest ever examples of a photo-collage. He soon recognised that stereoviews were the key to prosperity and by 1863 had a catalogue of over 400 views from all across the UK, selling them in a wide variety of outlets including railway kiosks and inside cathedrals. His artistic training helped him compose picturesque and beautiful images, but he was also an innovative technician, experimenting on improving photographic techniques, chemistry and apparatus, working closely with camera and lens manufacturers. He was among the very first to publish “instantaneous” views, ranging from a bustling Princes Street, Edinburgh to a charming view of children paddling in the sea, both dating from 1859.
