    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.

  • THE SHOT CYCLE: Key Building Block for Situation Training
    Produced by Wayne Elderton, a Tennis Canada National Level 4 Coach, Head of Coaching Development and Certification in BC and Tennis Director of the North Vancouver Tennis Centre. © 2008 Wayne Elderton, acecoach.com (Revised March 2018) THE SHOT CYCLE: Key Building Block for Situation Training It is common for coaches use strokes (e.g. the forehand, the backhand, the serve, the volley, etc.) for their training and planning however, in a Game-based approach (GBA), it is ‘situations’ rather than strokes that need to be trained. It is not as effective to organize planning and training around strokes as it is to use situations. For example, if a player hits a rally topspin forehand crosscourt from the baseline, which is more similar tactically and technically: a rally topspin backhand crosscourt from the baseline or, a leveled off attacking forehand from ¾ court? Obviously the FH and BH are more similar than the two forehands. How effective is it then to teach (and learn) ‘the forehand’ when one doesn’t know which forehand? Rather than only a process of learning strokes, learning tennis is really a process of expanding the library of situations you can handle during play (which includes different strokes). Even players who are not taught this way go through this process in spite of their coaching. For example, players typically learn how to handle the tactics of different opponents by experiencing them in match play. The goal of Situation Training (ST) is to identify these situations and shortcut the learning process by exposing players to the problems and solutions encountered during play.

  • A Kinematic Analysis of a Top 10 Wta Tennis Player's First
    30th Annual Conference of Biomechanics in Sports – Melbourne 2012 Yuliang Sun. A kinematic analysis of Li Na's tennis power serve technique. (179) A KINEMATIC ANALYSIS OF A TOP 10 WTA TENNIS PLAYER’S FIRST SERVE Yuliang Sun,1 Yu Liu1 and Xinglong Zhou2 School of Kinesiology, Shanghai University of Sport, Shanghai, China1 Sport Science College, Beijing Sport University, Beijing, China2 The purpose of this study was to provide valuable information of the tennis serve, through a three-dimensional (3D) cinematographic analysis of Li Na’s flat serve. Two high-speed cameras operating at 200Hz placed around the baseline recorded her flat service motion. The direct linear transformation (DLT) method was used. The ball was hit at a distance of 1.11 m below a peak ball toss height of 3.65 m. In backswing, the minimum knee flexion angle was about 110°. The lowest point recorded by the racket head was about 0.21 m lower than the height of the body center of gravity during the early drive phase. The velocity of the racket head was 38.2 m/s at impact and the height of the impact point was 2.5 m which was 1.48 times the height of her body. Like other elite tennis players in the world, Li Na has her own tennis strokes and swing style. KEY WORDS: flat serve, DLT method, three-dimensional analysis, Chinese player. INTRODUCTION: The serve, a closed skill which players have total control over, may be the most important shot in tennis. However, it is also a difficult stroke to master.
