TENNIS

-Called LAWN TENNIS

- a game which two opposing players (singles) or pairs of players (doubles) use rackets to hit a ball over a net on a
rectangular court.

BASIC STROKES
 Serve – the shot that starts each and every point; hit from either the deuce court, standing to the left side of
the center mark when facing the net at the baseline, or the ad court, standing to the lefts side of the center
mark.
 Ground stroke – a stroke typically hit standing a few feet from the baseline, either hit as a forehead or
backhand.
 Volley – a shot that is hit before the v ball bounces or hits the court while approaching the net or while the
net; can be forehand, backhand, or half volley.
 Lob – shit done with the stroke below the head about waist-level, the ball travelling up.
 Drop – shot usually done with the stroke above the head. The ball travelling up but dropping just near the
net; can be done using either backhand or forehand.
 Smash – shot done with the stroke above the head, the ball travelling down with power and speed.

BASIC RULES OF TENNIS

 A tennis match is made up of two to three sets. To win a set, a player must win at least six games.
 Each game is scored starting at “love” or zero and go up to 40. From love. The first point is 15, then 30,
then 40, then game point, which wins the game.
 There are different methods of scoring in a set. Advantage Set (the first player/team to win games win that
“SETS”, provided there is a margin of two games over the opponent(s). the set shall continue until the
margin is achieved. Tie-break Set the first player \/team to win six games wins that “Sets”, provided there
is a margin of two games over the opponent(s). if the score reaches six games all, a tie-break game shall be
played.
 A match can be played to the best of 3 sets (a player/team needs to win 2 sets to win the match) or to the
best of 5 sets (a player/team needs to win 3 sets to win the match).
 If a ball touches a line, it is regarded as touching the court bunded by that line.
 When serving in a standard game, the server shall stand behind alternate halves of the court, starting from
the right half of the court in every games.
 If the first service is a fault, the server shall serve again without delay from behind the same half of the
court from which that fault was served, unless the service was from the wrong half.
INJURY PREVENTION IN DUAL SPORTS
 Increased exercise and sports participation increases risks of injuries because you engage in physical
activities that place great demands on your body.
 Injuries can be anything from the occurrence of a new symptom during training or competition (Jones,
Hughes, & Kingston, 2008).
 Refers to the prevention or reduction the severity of bodily injuries caused by external mechanism before
they occur.

INJURIES PREVENTION
 Ankles, knees, and wrist  Correct technique
 Sufficient rest and recovery
 Proper warm up
 Cool down
 Drink water before, during and after activity to
keep hydrated.
The table below the risks of injuries when engaging in the following sports.
Injuries Badminton Table Tennis Tennis
Ankle sprains High Low High
Shoulder Injuries High Low High
Wrist injuries High Low High
Tennis Elbow Low Moderate High
Achilles tendinitis moderate low High

 The most important preventive measures are proper technique, use of appropriate equipment, and limited
stress.
 Tennis elbow should be treated with RICE (rest, ice, compression, and elevation), the mainstay for treating
soft tissue injuries. Tendonitis of the hand fingers is treated the same as any other tendonitis, with rest, ice,
and anti-inflammatory medications.
 Stretching techniques and exercise are suitable for treating injuries as well.
 Conservative measures used to treat Achilles tendonitis include icing the injury, anti-inflammatory
medication, and physical therapy. Resting the painful Achilles tendon will minimize aggravation of the
inflammation and allow healing.
 Immediate treatment of an ankle sprain consists of protection, rest, ice, compression, and elevation (an
approach known by the acronym PRICE) splinting, taping, or bracing the ankle can help protect it from
further injury.
 Stretching exercises will also help to loosen the muscles around the ankle and prevent stiffness.
Strengthening exercises, too, help in the recovery from an ankle sprain.
BENEFITS FROM ENGAGING IN REGULAR PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
 Performance Benefit – an improved ability to score well on physical fitness tests or to perform well in
athletics or work activities requiring high-level performance.
 Cardiovascular Fitness Benefits – improvements in cardiovascular function that contribute to
cardiovascular fitness.
 Wellness Benefits – increase in quality of life and well-being
 Last Bout Effect – some of the benefits of physical activity are short-term.
