Science of Coaching Tennis

The science of coaching Tennis gives a detailed approach to coaching. It covers a wide spectrum of areas from drills, strokework, fitness, and mental efficency. I like the advice the book gives on what the attributes of a coach should be or could be. It gives examples on how to move players forward to the next level in a logical step by step manner; moreover covers areas which many coaching manuels leave out. The research is first rate with a high level of experience both practical and real. I liked the points which Groppels makes about the fallacys of the game which are around us all the time! The reality which he provides makes sense. The tips concerning the Ideal Performance State which is provided in the latter stages of the book can only help in performance. This book is aimed for Coaches who want to progress further than the old fashioned methods. It is a heavy read so you really need some prior experience to respect the information provided: both playing! and Coaching to a skilled level. This book is not for social players; moreover geared towards those who take pride in there performance.
