    YOUR INVITATION . TO JOIN THE AUSTRALIAN DAVIS CUP TENNIS FOUNDATION A.B.N. 90 004 905 060 Foundation President, Neale Fraser, AO MBE says “Join me in supporting a brighter future for Australian Tennis.” ABOUT THE FOUNDATION The Australian Davis Cup Tennis Foundation was formed in September 1971 with the objective of providing financial assistance towards the cost of sending Australia’s team overseas for Davis Cup matches. Over the years, a policy has emerged of funding the development of young Australian players, showing Davis Cup potential, by direct player or official team assistance or, as currently, by financial support for selected Player Development Programs of Tennis Australia. Within the above policy the Foundation has given financial support to individual players, squads, official teams, player development programmes, Satellite circuits, Futures and Challenger events in excess of $1,900,000. Such financial support has significantly upgraded the status of these circuits, events, and programmes. Currently, the Foundation has around 1800 members from all Australian States and Territories and the following countries: New Zealand, USA, United Kingdom, Hong Kong, France, Switzerland, Malaysia, Singapore, Netherlands and Thailand. The membership fee entitles members to apply for "Priority Access" to purchase a limited number of tickets for the Australian Open. Members may also purchase tickets for all Davis Cup ties being played in Australia and, wherever possible, join a touring party to overseas Davis Cup ties. All members will receive an informative 'Members Newsletter' on at least three occasions each year. The Foundation invites new members to help increase our financial assistance to the development of young Australian players.

    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.

  • Devising a World Cup in Tennis Tristan Barnett 1. Introduction A
    Devising a World Cup in Tennis Tristan Barnett 1. Introduction A team sport includes any sport which involves players working together towards a shared objective (i.e. soccer, rugby, cricket), whereas an individual sport refers to a sport in which participants compete as individuals (i.e. golf, athletics, tennis). There are certain sports which are sometimes played as a team sport and other times as an individual sport. Tennis is one example where doubles could be regarded as a team sport and singles as an individual sport. However, overall tennis is better reflected as an individual sport since when played internationally there are often more than one singles players or doubles teams represented by the same country. The FIFA World Cup (also called the Soccer World Cup) is the world’s most widely viewed sporting event and the major international competition in soccer, and arguably the competition that countries would want to win most of all. Similar world cup competitions exist in other sports such as rugby union, rugby league, ODI cricket and recently T20 cricket. The Olympic Games are a major international event featuring summer and winter sports and have come to be regarded as the world’s foremost sports competition. There has been a soccer tournament at every summer Olympic Games since 1900, except at the 1932 games in Los Angeles. Before the inception of the FIFA World Cup, the Olympics had the same status as the FIFA World Cup. Individual sports can have the complexity of recognizing status since they can be played as an individual event or as a team event.
