CERTIFIED INSTRUCTOR) Tennis Tip no. 3 A Margin For Error There are thirteen hundred square feet on each side of a tennis court. How is it possible that so many mistakes are made? The main reason, especially for beginners, is that they leave no margin for errors To improve his game and overcome a go for broke attitude, a player must attempt a game of percentages. The net skimmer, line toucher and cannonball serve are examples of shots hit with no margin for error. If never changed, they are the blueprint for a losing game. Here are some changes a new player or even intermediate might use. Instead of a ball that skims the net, try lofting the shot to clear the net by four feet. Depth of the shot in tennis com- pensates for lack of pace. Similarly, the corner shot should not hit the lines. Place the ball within"five.feet of side and base lines to increase your chances for consistency. The cannon ball serve is also a low percentage shot. Slow down that first serve. Add spin for control. it is better to lob the ball into play rather than double fault. The strategy outlined above is more com- monly known as playing the percentages. Its ultimate success relies upon your ability to keep the ball in play and letting your opponent make the mistakes. sport shoji 524-2822 l•>f, I • /Ut10001lt me i1 6ET YOUR TICKETS NOW FOR THE GODERICH LION'S GIANT BEEF BARBECUE FOUNDER'S DAY THURSDAY, JUNE 29th 4:30 P.M. -7:30 P.M.
