Proc. Nº 3876/08 Pll Nº 161/08 Exposição De Motivos Há
PROC. Nº 3876/08 PLL Nº 161/08 EXPOSIÇÃO DE MOTIVOS Há muitas teorias para o surgimento do tênis, mas há um consenso de que a França estabeleceu as bases reais do jogo com o surgimento do jeu de paume (jogo da palma) no final do século XII e início do XIII. No tênis primitivo, as raquetes não eram empregadas. Os jogadores usavam as mãos nuas e depois optaram por usar luvas. No século XIV, já havia jogadores que usavam um utensílio de madeira em forma de pá, conhecido como battoir, que mais tarde recebeu um cabo e também as cordas trançadas. Era o nascimento da raquete – uma invenção italiana. Com o tempo, o tênis deixou de ser jogado com a bola contra o muro, passando a ser praticado em um retângulo dividido ao meio por uma corda. Surgiu, assim, o longue-paume, que permitia a participação de até seis jogadores de cada lado. Mais tarde, apareceu o court-paume, jogo similar, disputado em recinto fechado, mas de técnica mais complexa e exigindo uma superfície menor para sua prática. O Major Walter Clopton Wingfield é apontado como o criador do tênis por alguns autores ingleses, mas, em 1858, na cidade de Birmingham, ou mais propriamente no distrito de Edgbaston, o português João Batista Pereira jogou uma partida de lawn tennis – algo similar ao jogo, sobre a grama, com o Major T. H. Gemm, acontecimento esse que deu origem à evolução da nova modalidade de esporte. No livro “História do Tênis”, de Lance Tingay, ressalta-se que o lawn tennis, tal como o críquete, o futebol e o golfe, não tem propriamente inventor, é uma questão mais de evolução do que invenção. -

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Three historians helped to make this study possible. Timothy Gilfoyle supervised my work with great skill. He gave me breathing room to research, write, and rewrite. When he finally received a completed draft, he turned that writing around with the speed and thoroughness of a seasoned editor. Tim’s own hunger for scholarship also served as a model for how a historian should act. I’ll always cherish the conversations we shared over Metropolis coffee— topics that ranged far and wide across historical subjects and contemporary happenings. -

British claims to have played the predominant role in the origins and growth of lawn tennis rested on four main pillars. This quartet of general factors has been widely discussed in accounts of the early history of the game, but each is sufficiently important to merit brief attention before turning the spotlight on the individual trailblazers, the men and women who became the sport’s first star performers. In the first place, while there are differing views as to who should be credited with ‘inventing’ lawn tennis, there is common agreement that it emerged among the affluent sections of British society in the mid- to late- Victorian period. A game known as pelota emerged in the Midlands at the behest of Major Harry Gem and his Spanish-born friend Augurio Pereira, both keen players of the ancient sport of rackets, though even after they formed a lawn rackets club at Royal Leamington Spa the game appeared to spread little beyond its immediate environs. The chief pioneer of the modern variant of lawn tennis, meanwhile, is widely considered to be Walter Clopton Wingfield, a retired army officer who served in India and China. -

Eaves and Robert J. Lake Submitted - International Journal of History of Sport Abstract In the context of sustained imperial dominance during the late Victorian era, foreigners perceived British playing styles, methods and approaches to lawn tennis as ‘blueprints’ for aspiring players. Those seeking to learn the game were largely dependent on observing skilled performers, however before the mid-1890s, most of the best British players declined to venture to Australasia and America, perceiving the opposition as inferior and their championships unworthy of their participation. Moreover, while British-trained coaching- professionals – widely considered the world’s best – offered instruction in a small number of clubs, they also rarely ventured outside of Europe. Alongside these barriers, the parochial and ethnocentric Lawn Tennis Association was less than proactive in their approaches to fostering international relations. One man, however, Dr Wilberforce Vaughan Eaves, did more for the internationalization of the sport than anyone else during this period, travelling extensively in America, South Africa and Australasia, demonstrating his skills, offering instruction and advising officials. Consequently, he helped develop the sport’s international character, laying the foundations for the Davis Cup, helping to foster Anglo-Australasian and Anglo-American relations, and hastening the development of foreign players, particularly in Australasia. -
