ANNOUNCEMENT . OF THE 1 SOUTHERN LAWN

ASSOCIATION ~ 1961

FUTURE

CHAMPION

IS N!illions of players and thousands of instructors are deeply indebted to the BALL-BOY COiYIPANY for its many contributions to the instructional end of tennis. BALL-BOY COl\IIPANY, headed by Eric Bergmark and Judy Barta, has virtually revolutionized the teaching of tennis through automation.

The first innovation produced by this Company was the BALL-BOY itself, an auto­ matic ball throwing machine that will toss up to forty balls at one of three speeds, at any loft, at five second intervals. Soon to follow were the BALL-BOY "RETRIEVER" and "SERVER."

Now, BALL-BOY has released a new item of value to teachers and students of tennis­ the "RE-BOUND-NET" (advertised below). This ingenius device allows the user a longer interval between strokes. The only way that it might be compared to a tennis "backboard" is that it returns balls hit against it. Unlike the back board in any other way, the RE-BOUND­ NET allows several seconds more for the student to prepare himself for the next stroke, without any reduction in ball velocity. "Adjustable tension controls" further add to the ver­ satility of this device. The RE-BOUND-NET may also be tilted at various angles to sim­ ulate a variety of shots.

SOUTHERN TE~NIS ~Iagazine wishes to commend BALL-BOY Company on its achievements in the "grass roots" phase of the game of tennis. Their efforts have produced a variety of excellent and varied equipment which is of great value to both the student and instructor. Editor
