Tennis drills?
I've played baseball for most of my life, but I've always liked tennis. I'm a junior in high school, and i think i might want to switch to tennis. I've always been decent at tennis i think, but is there any simple drills I can do in the few months before the season to make myself a better tennis player?

How can I buy the 2004 Wimbledon DVD without buying it from somewhere other than NBC?
I played tennis my senior year of high school and moved from last on the team to 4th best on the team. I practiced my serve constantly, get a ball hopper to hold alot of balls. And I used to hit against the wall which is good practice because the ball comes back at alot of different angles. Also, just go to the courts yourself and sometimes you'll be able to play somebody there which is usually the best practice.I am looking for a good tennis shoe since I have pronated feet. What recommendations do you have?
I'm also a junior in high school and tennis is pretty much the best sport ever. To build up strength bounce a ball up and down on your racket. Sounds easy right? try to switch the racket to face up, then down, then up, then down. Also, go to the courts and just serve balls for a while, it's good for strength too. Even if you don't get the ball where its supposed to go, hit it as hard as you can to build up strength for a while, then aim the ball to where you want it to go. Hitting a ball against a wall is good too. Try to get light weights to work out your arms, shoulders too. The importnant thing to do with weights is to use light ones, but do many reps. This will give you not only strength, but endurance and endurance is the most important thing in tennis.Good luck with the season!!!
What brand of grass do they use at wimbeldon,?
im a freshman in high school and i did conditioning all summer for tennis. first i would run alot. i would run for about 10 to 20 minutes until i think im ready to move on to practicing my hits. i would start out by hitting some basic backhands and forehands. then i would pratice my serves until i thought i was lose enough to start praticing for real. then i would play a game against on of my teammates. after i was done i would run z's on the tennis courts lines and boundries to help with learning how to stop quick and move.good luck
i'm a freshman and well all you have to do is focus on the game and you can do suicides to help promote quickness and agility and also practice your volleys with your friends and stuff its a great Game!
What is the name of the girl in the camera and tennis ball commercial?
It's really good to go to the courts by yourself and it;s really easy to find someone to play with. I've ran into several coaches there and they give me hints and little tricks a lot.To practice your serve go to the fence throw the ball close to it and swing your racket so that it stops the ball on the fence.. It'll help you a lot on your serve in being aware where your hitting the ball and position of your arms
And a tennis trainer is always a good device. They're way better than hitting the ball on a wall.. you can find them at Sports Authority for a good price
Another drill is get someone to play net and volley to you while you stand back to help with your speed and placement
Other than those just practice regularly.. find someone on your team u can hit with on the weekends..Good luck with the tennis thing!
