Tennis Tip:The Waiting is the
Hardest Part...


Have you ever been in the position of feeling rushed, hurried or
overpowered on the tennis court?  Do you too often feel,
the ball is on top of you so quickly that you end up rushing through
your swings and missing shots?
Don’t worry—we have all been there!

The best way to slow down the game and gain control is to
prepare early! Too many players wait too long to get the racquet
 in the hitting position. If you wait until the ball has bounced—
it's too late! If you take the racquet back as soon as you know
 which side the ball is coming too, you will always be
 ‘waiting’ on the ball.

Next time you are on the practice court, try this drill;
as soon as your opponent hits the ball, predict which side its
coming to by saying out loud, ‘FOREHAND’ or ‘BACKHAND’!
You will be surprised how early you can predict whether it’s
 a forehand or backhand. Next try taking your racquet back while
you are saying ‘FOREHAND’ or ’BACKHAND’.

If you practice this technique, I'm certain you will be able to slow
down the game and improve your shots by always
 ‘waiting’ on the ball.

Have fun.....Bill
