Tennis Friends
We all benefit from a smooth regular, playing tempo. Rushing
too quickly to serve a second serve, or, even a first one in the
face of adversity usually does not help. So, you have about 25
seconds to set up, calmly call the score and think about what
you want to do as you set up for the next shot. In a tennis
game, not waiting for the balls to clear, not calling the score or
rushing your serve to get the next point can disrupt your game
or startle your opponents. It is poor tennis etiquette. Worse yet,
sometimes the score gets confused.
When you watch the pros at the end of a point, the score is
called, the balls are cleared, then the server starts some sort
of routine before serving the ball. Some players reset their
strings, some bounce the ball, and a favorite of some is when
Maria Sharapova turns her back to the opposing player and
seemingly talks to an imaginary friend. Then she sets up to
serve.
Come join the tennis friends on the courts now that the
weather is at its best. We can help each other develop better
tennis etiquette and tennis playing tempo, and make new
friends.
You can just drop in to any of these events or check with Tracy
Trousset, Trish Egan, or Chuck Sims. Furthermore, several of
our members are familiar with tennis around the SoCal area so
if you have questions let us know.
