Coach Haley's Tennis Tip of the Month
Stay Out of No Man’s Land
When playing singles beware that you must not get caught in No-Man’s Land. This is the area in the picture below that is colored red.
Most balls land in this area. You want to avoid letting the ball bounce close to you. It is difficult to play a ball when you get jammed. After hitting a shot, be prepared to move back to a position a few feet behind the baseline. If your opponent's ball is short enough, you will want to make a well placed approach shot and follow this shot to the net. Make sure you keep your eyes open to observe any miss hits, drop shots or shallow balls that your opponent may hit. You do not want to be caught backing up when this happens.
This Month's Quotes
"Forget about your losses. Laugh and hit. You'll have more fun and win more in the long run"
Vic Braden
"Never equate losing with failure" Arthur Ashe
