A speech about tennis shoes
Respected Chair, distinguished guests of the day, and my dear friends,
As you all know, Tennis is a well known game which has fans all over the world. Like the other components of the game, I strongly feel that tennis shoes are also important for the effective performance of a player in the court and there is no doubt that the latest designs and technologies make them really performance oriented. It is essential for the players to wear special shoes designed for tennis because ordinary running shoes would not work for them. I have learnt that running shoes are designed to facilitate forward motion exerting more stress on the feet and that they do not provide stability for the feet in sideways body movements

Another difference is in the case of shoes for men and women. Smaller size men’s shoes were used by women players in the past but tennis shoes specially designed for men and women are available now. Women’s shoes could be distinguished by features like narrow heel area and a wider toe portion and shoes for men possess same width in the toe and heel areas (Trabert, Witchey & DeNevi 25).
For Brown, inside and outside stability is the most important feature of a true tennis shoe. Tennis is a game which requires more side to side movements than the forward or backward motion and therefore choosing a shoe which supports controlled sideways movements would prevent the feet from rolling and thus help to prevent ankle sprains. There are tennis shoes of different weights, comfort levels and costs available to tennis players and it is always to go for the light weight shoes if it satisfies all other requirements (Brown xiv).
Therefore it is understood that different types of tennis shoes are available in order to suit specific purposes. Special tennis shoes are available even for kids to play tennis. Specially designed shoes for tennis facilitate balanced and easy sideways movement for the feet and exertion of lesser force on the joints. Tennis players can make a choice among the large variety of shoes available for them
Athletic footwear cannot be designed to cater to a large group as in general. It has to produceits products with a distinct difference keeping in mind the age groups or usage groups it isintending to target.
Running shoes can vary from racing flats to spikes to cross training shoes, which are used for distance running. In order to get good running performance, it is important to research the various different shoes that is best for the different running conditions. When I first started out running I had to make sure I got the perfect pair of running shoes that best fit me as a runner. Literacy played an important role when I was searching for my running shoes because without the knowledge of what would be the best fit for each runner we wouldn’t know what shoes works best for us. I was running at least thirty miles a week so I had to make sure I was getting a shoe that was protecting me from injuries and giving me just the right amount of cushion and support I needed. I started out with no support at all when it came to my running shoes and it ended up causing myself to have shin splints, which is a pulling pain on the lower leg near your calf, but with the help of running experts I was able to find the perfect fit that worked best for
Feet are not perfectly straight they have a degree of curve. Straight shape is found in motion control shoes. The straighter a shoe is the more stability you have. Semi-Curved shape is found in stability shoes. The curved shape is found in lightweight neutral shoes. The upper shoe holds your foot in place. The upper shoe contains three materials. Synthetic leather that is used for durability. Mesh is used to make the shoe breathable. Reflective material is used to make the shoe more safe. The midsole is the most important part of the shoe. The midsole contains three materials. EVA is a lightweight foam-based cushioning. Dual-Density EVA material gives the shoe double the density Polyurethane material is a very durable cushioning. The outsole is made up of two materials. The carbon rubber material is the most durable part of the outsole. The blown rubber material is lighter and has more flexibility and cushion. Insoles may or may not help with running, but can help if feet are uncomfortable and provide extra cushioning. Waterproof running shoes are packed with sheaths of Gore-tex. Running shoes with Gore-tex will help drain the water faster and will keep your feet dry longer. Waterproof shoes resist sweat to get out. When the feet are immersed in water or sweat can develop which can cause athlete’s foot and swelling.
Asics Running Shoes Women, each time a runner is buying some Asics running shoes, most sales affiliate marketers will request how often she runs. The answer determines the quantity of stability an athlete will require in the shoe: high-level stability is ideal for experienced distance runners, while mid-level stability is ideal for novice runners. Other pursuits the shopper must understand will be the arch support and "pronation." Pronation describes how a ft comes if the makes reference to the ground. Whether a runner's foot are "over" or under-pronated determines which running sneaker will best compensate stride and ft support.
There are other footwear’s that provide the same level of comfort and satisfaction such as the shoes designed by Nike, Adidas, Bata etc. as well as sell at a competitive price.
barefoot, used less energy and efforts. If you run barefoot your body makes up for the missing cushioning by using your leg muscles more and expending more energy.’’ Running barefoot does have some incorrect things, but not as much as running with cushioned shoes.
The new rules of tennis for children has achieved one of its goals by intriguing and introducing the sport of tennis to more kids. The participation growth of tennis was shown by a study done by the Taylor Research Group in 2012 commissioned by the United States Tennis Association and the Tennis Industry Association. This study’s results showed a thirteen percent increase of tennis participation in children six to eleven years old (Bartram 74-75). The different stages have been set in order for children to gradually enhance their tennis skills and athletic skills so they can eventually progress to the standard size court. Tennis has been downsized for children in order for them to find joy in tennis, not to be overwhelmed by trying to play out of their physical capabilities. Children can now be successful in tennis, if the coaches and parents can work in unison to choose what is best for the young athlete (“Coach Youth Tennis” video 4). The overall goal of the newly tailored youth tennis rules and regulations is for children to develop a lifelong passion
The cushion tennis courtroom are can be an all weather surface area. The multi-layer cushion program offers maximum player convenience and exceptional toughness for a long time, sometimes through the entire life
When the middle class started getting more into sports, such as tennis, the material of the sneaker became more adaptable for the activity. A sole pattern under the shoe became introduced to give the sneaker
In the game of tennis, a game is played indoors or outdoors by two players in singles or doubles with four players. The goal of tennis is to win 1st place in the tournaments. Not only that the winner will also receive a prize which is cash. The objective of tennis is to hit the ball side to side of the opponent net
Today a shoe is more than something to protect and keep one’s feet warm, it is a fashion statement, an athletic enhancer, rebellion, status, and the ins and outs of coolness. Shoes, mainly athletic shoes have changed drastically throughout the years. From weight, size, look, and comfort ability, Nike has been the leading footwear company to develop and lead such a growing industry. Peter Hitchcock, the author of Oscillate Wildly, wrote,
Look for flexibility, stability, shock absorption, and breathability. These four features will provide you with the comfort and support you need when wearing athletic shoes.

Participating in basketball begins with picking which basketball shoes to wear. The purpose of a sports shoe is to improve performance or reduce the risk of injury (Fong, Hong & Li, 2007). While playing the game of basketball I’ve realized it is a sport that involves different types of shoes which help improve jumping, landing, cutting and much more. Basketball has its positives and negatives for every age group; it has good health benefits, but it also consists of moderate to high risk lower body injuries to the lower back, legs and ankles. There are different types of basketball shoes which consist of high tops, mid tops, low cuts, cushioned shoes, non-cushioned shoes, and other different combinations. The high tops basketball shoe will have a collar that goes above the ankle like a sleeve. The mid tops basketball shoe covers slightly above the ankle, but lower than high tops. The low cut basketball shoes don’t have a collar at all and they don’t cover the ankle. Shoes also vary by weight and outsole traction. Through my knowledge picking the shoe to wear is solely on your preference. Whatever shoe that you choose will have different advantages or disadvantages to them. The purpose of this literature review is to explore the variety of effects specific shoe types have on basketball athletes.
Today, the adidas® product range extends from shoes, apparel and accessories for basketball, soccer, fitness and training to adventure, trail and golf . adidas®, like many companies during the 1960s, believed in large volume sales. Lot of effort was put into advertising the brand in the early days through sporting celebrities. One of the main reasons that the colour of the 3 stripes on the running shoes was changed from black or dark brown to white was to facilitate easy brand recognition and identification, which in turn would promote the overall sales. The ideology was that the ability of a brand to stand out in the market place will enhance its chance of standing out in the customers mind. adidas® produced shoes that could be used for different types of sports.
