Tennis Tip from Coach Kwong

Part of why tennis is so great is the challenge it offers. We must practice being a coach and an official during court play while displaying good sportsmanship from beginning to end. No one likes losing or being frustrated by being outplayed by an opponent. Unfortunately, there are players of every age who don’t play fair or show good sportsmanship. These are individuals who question line calls, have an attitude, blame their partner, and use mental games or gamesmanship (Boo!).

So, whether you win or lose a match, just enjoy the play and exercise no matter what the outcome may end up being. Get rid of the “drama,” or risk being labeled. If you don’t want to be outclassed, then just display some class!
