Tennis

Tennis is a very interesting sport believe it or not. In tennis in one match you can get a great work out. During a tennis match you are doing a lot of moving. So if you do not have a lot of stamina you will get very tired very fast. To be a good tennis player you need to as I said before have good stamina. Also, you will need very good had eye cordination. Hand eye cordination is very important because you have to hit the tennis ball with the tennis racket. If you have ever played tennis you know that it is very easy to hit the ball ball most of the time the ball does not go where you want it to go. The ball goes int the diection and place of where you angle you racket towards. So if you want to make the ball go up you angle up and the same thing for left and right.There are many important tennis hits like the forehand, back hand, two hand, and the serve. __ Rules __ During singles, 1 vs. 1, the out side lanes are considered out of bounds. During a doubles match the full court is being used. When you serve you get 2 chances to serve the ball. If you miss the first serve it is called a let. Both opponents must stand on the opposite diagonals of the court. If you do miss on the second serve the opponent gets a point. To correctly serve the ball you must be standing behind the baseline and while you are serving you can not let you foot go over the baseline or you will be called for a footfall. A ball is called out if the ball goes out of the courts dimensions. But if the ball lands on the line the ball is still in play. __ Scoring __ Tennis is scored in a very weird way. The score goes 0, 15, 30, 40 and game. When the score is zero it is called love. When you are tied at 40- 40 it is called a deuce. If you reach a deuce you will need 2 more points to win the match. Depending on if you are serving or not gives you advantage in or advatage out if you have broken the deuce by 1 point. If you get the second point you get game.

Well here is the tennis schedule.
