  • 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.

  • Measurements of the Horizontal Coefficient of Restitution for a Superball and a Tennis Ball
    Measurements of the horizontal coefficient of restitution for a superball and a tennis ball Rod Crossa) Physics Department, University of Sydney, Sydney, NSW 2006 Australia ͑Received 9 July 2001; accepted 20 December 2001͒ When a ball is incident obliquely on a flat surface, the rebound spin, speed, and angle generally differ from the corresponding incident values. Measurements of all three quantities were made using a digital video camera to film the bounce of a tennis ball incident with zero spin at various angles on several different surfaces. The maximum spin rate of a spherical ball is determined by the condition that the ball commences to roll at the end of the impact. Under some conditions, the ball was found to spin faster than this limit. This result can be explained if the ball or the surface stores energy elastically due to deformation in a direction parallel to the surface. The latter effect was investigated by comparing the bounce of a tennis ball with that of a superball. Ideally, the coefficient of restitution ͑COR͒ of a superball is 1.0 in both the vertical and horizontal directions. The COR for the superball studied was found to be 0.76 in the horizontal direction, and the corresponding COR for a tennis ball was found to vary from Ϫ0.51 to ϩ0.24 depending on the incident angle and the coefficient of sliding friction. © 2002 American Association of Physics Teachers. ͓DOI: 10.1119/1.1450571͔ I. INTRODUCTION scribed as fast, while a surface such as clay, with a high coefficient of friction, is described as slow.

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.

  • 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.

( 1) "My name is Shelly Freeman George--just call me Shelly--and I'm going to be the new tennis coach here at City High. Before I tell you a little about myself, let me start out by sending a clipboard around. On the sheet, I want you to write your name, grade, phone number, and all your tennis experience. That includes how many years you've taken lessons, varsity experience and letters you've won," directed the woman of about twenty-seven years.
