Dear friends and tennis minds:
Here is a complete beginner—never played tennis before—learning forehand mechanics.
2nd day of technical work.
I propose teaching all young kids with a new model like this in U10 ROG rather than the old school stiff swings, follow throughs to the neck, and closed stances that are currently the standard.
I also propose teaching beginners to jump on their strokes to facilitate hip rotation and help develop elasticity in the arm and a parabolic shaped swing path.
Coaches—Let’s think outside the box!
Children don’t need to be taught stroke mechanics from a bygone era only to learn modern strokes when they are older!
Teach modern right away and save development time.
