Positives:
+Keeps players active and in shape.
+ Challenges players to use known moves or create new ones
to beat their opponent.
+ Can teach teamwork in double or if a member of an overall
team.
+ Teaches speed, endurance, strength, hand-eye coordination,
predictability and so much more that helps people in every day life.
Negatives:
- High chance of injuries to the elbows, shoulders and knees
from use and constant movement.
-Lung issues can keep people from playing, as they will have
problems keeping up with healthier players.
- In doubles players have to constantly be aware of their
partner’s location and actions at all times.
- Often mistaken for a simple game, new players can get in
over their heads very quickly.
Thoughts
~ This sport can often be grueling on it’s players and
spectators don’t really get to have a meet the player event before or after a
match. This would be the perfect time for fans to learn about the game and meet
their idols.
~Matches can go on for hours. There should be a halftime
type of break if a game goes over a certain time. This will give players time
to rest, get a drink, snack or patched up.
~ Tennis takes a lot
of creativity for players to figure out a strategy on what moves to use and how
to disguise moves to fool their opponent
~ Tennis is a great sport to teach teamwork and important
health facts most schools are looking for. Tennis would be great for schools to
acquire as a sport for competitions.
Would Like:
* More meet the player events.
* A ‘halftime’ after so long of playing.
*A book about tennis strategy
* More schools to have tennis
