So I walk to the center of the mat and all the nerves go away.And so I wait for my opponent he also starts walking to the center of the mat and so does the ref. And I shake his hand and he blows the whistle.

They might not possess the prettiest strokes however they are crafty plus they know ways to get the job done. They will search for any advantage they are able to get. They will make an effort to breakdown your mental game. They could verbalize a few accidental injuries they have, they are able to stall (shoe laces, accidental injuries, bathroom breaks, and several ball bounces), they might not return balls for you for your provide or strike it to the additional side of the courtroom so you need to walk to obtain it. They may continually request you to go and obtain balls for his or her serve. They may let you know how you are playing to attempt to distract you, and they could also question your calls, ask you to contact out the rating, or other activities of this nature. In the event that you allow them under your skin layer you are completed for! Stay calm. In the event that you weren't such an excellent participant they would not want to get this done to win. Make use of your time and effort between points to concentrate on yourself, keep good attention control, avoid searching at them and simply play the

I stay positive, even when facing challenges. I have been playing tennis for seven years, and I have almost always played people better than me, like my sister Annabel. At practices and tournaments, despite hard effort, sometimes I am not in the right condition, and I keep making unforced errors. Instead of getting frustrated, like most others do, I try my best to stay positive and laugh it off, which in turn makes me more confident, and makes my opponent nervous. Tennis is like life; you're not always going to win. When I fall behind, I will stay optimistic and keep on trying.

Without good communication a participant will struggle to get far in learning new skills, improving where they aren’t as good and they will find it difficult to perhaps ask for help and guidance as there wouldn’t be much of a relationship between the coach and the participant. Yet by a coach having good communication with their participant, the participant will end up being more willing to learn and they will feel more comfortable in their sport. Communication consist of admiration in their sport, critical analysis and how to improve in the areas the coach has noticed. To get communication across effectively a coach need to be vocal and use different ways to communicate such as hand signals. An example of a communication is coach-to-quarterback communications systems which is replaced hand signals and player substitutions as methods for coaches to relay play calls to quarterbacks.

This factor was an advantage for me, as it caused my partner to go to the back of the court, giving me the time to get to the center of the court, and get ready to move to any part of the court to which my partner might hit it into. Also, I made my partner think it was going to be a short serve as she didn’t look like she was going to hit the shuttle hard, since she uses her backhand technique the most. But the adjusting of her wrist gave control to the shuttle getting it inside the court area. Sometimes, she gets confused and nervous and doesn’t know how to act towards it, and ends up hitting the shuttle at the net.

Now just 10 minutes until the game, I was still watching my team. A lot of them were struggling with serving and kept looking at me with an unsure look. I looked down at the shiny gym floors and thought to myself “These girls need me, I can’t just sit back and watch my team struggle like this.”

Where is the line drawn in competition? When is enough actually enough? Is it worth it? Does a medal matter that much? All those thoughts rush into my head as I stand at the baseline and wait for my opponent to serve. Irritation, impatience and rage storm my body as if I lost the match before it began.

First of all, my role in this Net/wall session was to demonstrate effectively the key skills on how to serve. There were two types of serves that we as group focused on which was the high serve and low serve.During the session our group was trying to gain an understanding on how to serve to the students so I repeatedly demonstrated the Activity. For example when students performed the high serve I advised them to bring the racket back in line with their shoulder as they swung the ball. Also when a student wasn 't quite

I was taught from a fellow friend who plays - “you never want to plant your feet on the ground, try to use the balls of your heel with your knees bent.” Tennis, also has a mental and psychological aspect to the fundamentals. Instructor Veeder, as you mentioned in class, I remember you gave a talk about being decisive with your movements which would lead to what should be done before the point starts in order to commit to a shot. You also mentioned that a player should be using their own strength to exploit an opponent’s weakness as much as you possibly can. Also, you should be minimizing your exposure of you own weakness to avoid playing against your opponents strengths. All in all, tennis is frustrating and I learned a lot throughout the course and had my fair share of fun with the class, learning something every week and also getting to meet and play with different

Dr Loehr (as cited in Mental Training For Peak Perfomance, 2005) states that it is crucial to keep telling yourself positive statements such as ‘’I can do this’’ or ‘’I am going to win this match.’’ Besides positive self-talk and its necessity, it is important not to allow negative thoguhts such as ‘’that player is better than me, he looks stronger than me’’ or ‘’I don’t think I can make it against this guy’’. A lot of players don’t like to play alone and be alone on the court. This is why affiramtions present another strong weapon in staying mentally strong during the match. For instance, in college tennis, you will players that are not in the top lineup being assigned to stay on one court and encourage and emotianlly support the player who’s on the court. On the other hand, in professional tennis this is not allowed. But in the stands, there is a special box where coaches and families would sit close to the player. They wouldn’t be allowed to talk, because it can be labeled as ‘’coaching’’ which is against the rules. This is why communication in tennis consists of 90% sign language, where you would see coach and players having their own little signs with different meanings. The greatest matches of all the times have left us with some enduring imprints so-called ‘’vicotry images’’. Watching your favorite player celebrating his or her big win can give you inspiration and encourage you for your next big match. It is important to create your own vicotry image, with your own victory salute, and enjoy the feeling that comes with

As soon as I am one hundred percent better, I stand up and go over to my coach. We are in the middle of our second game and I have to sit out for it. When the third game starts. I get to serve and glance into the crowd before I do, I look into the crowd. I see my family in the crowds

Finally, communication is important when it comes the final area, encourage the heart. This can be done by being clear about the goals and the rules. If one is not

For the warm-ups before practice I will have the players start by running these drills to get the blood flowing: The Courier Drill, Spiders, and Cross Court line touches. After this practice will commence with various stroke preparation drills such as cross-court/down the line and a point blank volleying drill to develop better hand-eye coordination and racquet preparation. In the cross-court/down the line drill there will be four people to each court and players on opposite sides of the court will plays five point games while alternating drop serves. One player is only allowed to hit the ball cross-court while the other player is allowed to hit the ball

Tennis psychology is only understanding the workings of your opponent's mind, and gauging the result of your game on his mental viewpoint, and understanding the mental effects caused by the many external causes by yourself mind. You can't be an effective psychologist of others without first understanding your own mental processes, you need to study the result on yourself of the same happening under different circumstances. You react differently in various moods and under different conditions. The effect should be realized by you on your own game of the resulting irritation, pleasure, confusion, or whatever form your reaction takes. Does it boost your efficiency? If so, shoot for it, but never give it to your opponent.
