Process Analysis Tennis Serve

In order for maximum force to be generated, a tennis player needs a good stable base from where they can begin the movement. The tennis serve begins with flexion of the knee joint caused by the hamstrings. Then comes extension of the knees as well as hip flexion to start the movement - both of these movements are initiated by the quadriceps. The Erector Spinae muscle causes trunk extension to allow the abdominals to fully flex the trunk and generate the force that is then transferred to the upper body. The deltoids and pectorals major are used to flex the shoulder. These muscles are used to accelerate the whole arm while also stabilising the shoulder. Once the arm has begun to accelerate towards the ball, the tricep brachii is then used to

From your backswing, , rotate your torso and swing your arms toward the ball to make contact with the ball.

Tennis serve is the shot that starts off the point. It is normally instigated by pitching the ball into the air and thumping it into the diagonally opposite service box exclusive of touching the net. This act is attained underhand or overhead. It is the only attempt where a player takes his time to position up, instead of reacting to an opponent’s shot. In doing this, high percentages of the efforts are normally exerted at the upper extremity of the body, while the rest at the lower extremity of the body. the serves comes in five main types of which includes; cannonball or flat serve, topspin-slice serve, slice serve, American twist serve and the topspin serve. The paper will focus on the some of the types of the serves and the ways in which the upper extremity are involved in the game. With this, it will look at the movements that occur at each of the upper extremity together with the muscles that are in use at the joints.

In tennis serve the summation of forces is important as athletes wants to reach maximum speed and accuracy, which through the correct sequence of body movement this greater force will be generated (Geiblinger, 2016).

6)Receiving the serve is vital to success for any team. Poor reception of service puts teams hoping to get a sideout at a huge disadvantage right from the beginning. If the person receiving the serve is unable to make a good pass to the setter, then the setter's task of setting a good ball to the spiker is made that much more difficult. Receiving the serve sets the tone, then, for the whole offensive sequence that follows.

Then, cross your right foot behind your left foot while going towards the tee. After that, take a step with your left foot towards the tee while bringing your hands back. Then swing the bat. You should make direct contact with the ball and it should go straight, not down or

I will be discussing the sport of tennis, the learning sequences, the skill techniques, learning cues, and teaching styles in that order. First that will be discussed is the learning sequences for the sport of tennis. According to Physical Education Activity Handbook, when you are first getting started with tennis, you need to introduce the scoring and tiebreaker procedures. Next, you need to explain the equipment used in tennis such as tennis balls and the racket. After that, the teacher should explain the rules and etiquette. It is best to introduce when directly related to skill or strategy being taught. Then, the skills and techniques should be taught. The skills and techniques that need to be taught are grips, strokes, the serve,

The goal of this lesson is for my students to understand the fundamentals of completing a successful bump, set, spike, and underhand serve. These aspects will be important when working with their teammates in a positive manner to complete these tasks and use these components to be successful in game play.

The key to a great shot is to grip your racquet firmly. Many shots will fall short because of an improper grip and the racquet ends up at the wrong angle when it actually makes contact with the ball. A firm grip will make your shots faster and more accurate. Using the wall to your advantage is one of your best defenses.

     These directions are for a right-handed player. A left-handed player would use the same technique, but for each

Once in the air, the left arm swings down first as a guide hand, then the right arm follows and contacts the top of the ball while snapping the wrist. Then follow through to the right hip. It is important to land on both of your feet instead of just one to refrain from injury.

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
