Tennis RULES



Hey guys this is Samuel and i am going to tell you about the rules of TENNIS :)

Rule 1
Players will stand opposite each other and opposite sides of the court. The player who serve the ball first will be called the server. The other player will be called the receiver.


Rule 2
The person who are chose to serve or receive will be determined by tossing of coin. Once the person is chosen the opponent chooses the side that he or she would want to start.




Rule 3
The server shall stand behind the baseline on the court within the boundaries of the singles court when playing singles and within the double sideline when playing doubles.
The server DO NOT serve until the receiver is ready. If the server misses his target twice, he LOSES a point.If the ball hits the net and goes in the correct service box, another serve is granted. If the server steps on the baseline before contact is made, the serve is deemed a fault.

Rule 4
The receiver is deemed ready if an attempt is made to return the server's ball. The receiver can stand where he like but he or she must let the ball bounce back in the service box. If the ball does not land in the service box,  it is deemed a fault and a second serve is given. If the ball is hit by either opponent before the ball bounces, the server wins the point.

Tennis Backhand

Hey guys! Today I am going to to teach you the other METHOD of how to playing tennis! So this second method is effective when you cannot use the forehand and you do not have time to use the forehand. So, this METHOD is called the BACKHAND.

Backhand is useful when you cannot use the right arm(if you are a right hander) to whack the ball so you use the left hand to whack the ball so its called backhand.


So this picture above illustrates you how to use the backhand to whack the ball. So, you prepare by raising your racquet above your shoulder level. So that you can have a big force to whack the ball and to hit the desired destinations that you want to hit.

The SECONDphase is to gauge where the ball will reach . So that you will prepare to whack the ball at a more accuracy pace.

The THIRD phase is to HIT THE BALL! This is the moment of truth when you have done phase ONE and phase TWO.

Tennis

This is Samuel and I am going to talk about something different today which is Tennis!

Tennis is a sport that you will enjoy if you know how to play it. It is quite simple as there is only 2 methods when using the racket.

First there is forehand, which is the fundamental when you are serving or you are passing the ball back to your opponents This is the preparation method where your hand is preparing to whack the ball so that you can pass it to your opponents and your right leg must be moving forward so that you can have a bigger impact to whack the ball to the other side.
So this is the preparation for the forehand position.
So after you prepare to whack the ball the next step is to swing the racket. You should swing the racket and gauge the force so that the ball will not fly off. You should also gauge when will the ball come and your leg should move across over your left leg so that you will have a sense whether you need this kind of force to hit the target point that you want to hit.
