Slam! Bang! Hope it goes in Sam!
That is how a lot of recreation players like to play tennis. They try to hit the ball as hard as they can to end the point as fast as they can. Most of the time the ball sails out. This strategy will never help someone grow as a tennis player. While you need to be able to hit the ball harder, the better players you play, you must also keep the ball in. It is very important to develop shots that you will never miss on and work those shots into a way to get a short ball. Tennis strategy really is not that hard. We like to tell our students keep the ball deep, wait for a short ball, make the winning shot. When you are first learning to play tennis, that is your number one tactic. You must keep the ball deep. You should aim at least six to ten feet over the net. Most players do not like to play high balls. These high balls will give you time to recover, margin over the net, and in most cases a short ball to come in on. So for today's take home assignment, go out and practice keeping the ball deep by aiming six to eight feet over the net.
