Tennis

Tennis is a great sport for many reasons, one it is extremely fun to play and two it is one of those sports you can play into your later years.
When looking to buy a raquet, you should figure out the level of play you are at.Beginners might want to choose a head that is wider, which reduces the chance of missing the ball. More experienced players might want to choose a more narrow head which has more power and accuracy.The material used for the raquet are nowadays synthetic materials such as composites and others. Wood is out of date, but you can always go old school.Younger players might want to choose a raquet that is lighter so it is easier to hit the ball. As you grow older, you will become stronger, and a heavier raquet will be needed. After selecting the raquet you will be ready to play tennis.
The first thing you will need to know about tennis is serving. Serving is the most important aspect of tennis. When you serve you will keep your feet about shoulder width apart and you will create a 45 degree angle with your feet. Next you will throw the ball up above your head slightly in front of the boundry line and follow through with your raquet.
When returning a serve you will want to stand in a crouching position and on the balls of your feet making it so you can move quickly as soon as your opponent serves. You want to be comfortable in this position but still ready to move quickly.
Volleying is the second most important aspect of tennis, having good placement with your volleys can win you the match. There is many different shots you can do when volleying. There is slices, topsin, kick, and flat. My personal favorite is slicing because it is tricky for your opponent to line up a good shot and it is easy for me to execute.
Tennis is a great sport to play hopefully after reading this you will feel like trying tennis out.
