How to Pick & Use a Tennis Racket Like the...
Tennis is a great sport, especially if you don't mind skinned knees, muscle spasms, and twisted backs. We played tennis all summer when I was a kid. Our rackets were not of the rich kid variety. They were of the Hey! Look what I found in the garbage can variety. We didn't know that there were things to know to properly pick a tennis racket. It was more like the racket picked us. But I do remember that after World War II a local hardware store had a tremendous sale on tennis rackets. You could get one for $5.00 if you could come up with the money. Somehow we got the money and a number of the kids got new rackets. Surely we were all on our ways to the pros. These rackets were not of the best quality...

Learning Your Tennis Drives
The forehand drive is the start of every attack in tennis, and, as such, should be most thoroughly looked at. There are certain rules of footwork that apply to all shots. To reach a ball that is a little distance away, progress the foot that is away from the shot and swing into position to hit.

Once the serve has begun on the way to court, the receiver should at once...
If It is Not Broken Do Not Fix It!
Teachers, coaches and players sometimes have this perfectionist idea that everything must be fixed at all times, which in some cases can lead to total disaster. I am going to give you an example.

Nevertheless, I was wrong, a "big guru...
