Many kids and parents are choosing a different sport that is not so harsh emotionally for the young ones.
In virtually every other sport, when young children are under stress and duress, there is a parent or coach there to help support them through the tough period. But in tennis, the kids are isolated. And I believe this damages them. It is traumatic for many children.
And those families will choose another sport.
Those micro-traumas also add up over time.
That’s why I believe this is fundamentally a child welfare issue above all else.
