Tennis Lessons

Is it true that when u join the USTA u have to pay a fee to join a junior tournaments, how much is it? How long do the tournaments last for and do u have the pay for the coaches involved? what other fees will they ask u foe aside from the tournaments? Would u suggest joining the usta rather than taking tennis lessons? because i’m always having trouble finding someone to pratice that is good as me but won’t. cause people say its about 30 for a tournaments a and thats what u pay for the season or every single week?

I’ve been playing violin for 4 years and tennis for 5…i know being good at a sport is good for scholarships, and so is music. I love violin but i don’t want to major in music, i love tennis but it’s kind of just hitting a ball with a racket…which should i really focus on?

I’m considering trying out for tennis in the spring as a freshman. However, I’m not sure how to prepare.
The thing is, I don’t know very much about tennis. My dad has a friend who can give me lessons, but until then, what sorts of skills could help in tennis (mile time, push ups, etc.), and where can I learn more about tennis?

Thanks in advance!

i searched all over the internet and there nothing even remotely close to the “solly slop”….where the hell did they come up with this name? its not even real…does it go by another name? has anyone ever heard of this?

So, I took a beginners tennis lesson, dec-feb. I’m now taking an intermidiate class and I absolutely **** at it. Everyone else is so much better, they always get it over the net, but not me, I always get it elsewhere, I hardly get the ball. And I can’t do the footing. I feel so bad, and embarrased.

*The lesson course, started yesterday, and is every week.
And, I **** with the footing it’s so complicated and I can’t see to do it right. I’m always last, and the worst player. It *****.

I need some websites, videos, anything, that can help me with my swings, and footing. Or tips and other stuff than can help me improve.

Thanks!

Basically,

It’s £15 an hour.
One to one with the tutor.
Includes multi-ball, basic skills and competition play.
The tutor is an ex hong kong junior champion.

Is that worth it, should i go along?
If so, how often should i do it? (once a week, once every 3 weeks, once a month)
Yihan – I am not taking the lessons yet because they are expensive, for me. That’s why i am asking.

Also, you missed a bit in physics and also, you missed the table tennis at lunch, you are on the team for the tournament on the 29th, our form tutor has the e-mail and will give us on monday.

I want to become better at tennis within 3-4 months? Is that possible? I really want to join in my school’s tennis team this year. I took class lessons every Saturday for one month. I no longer take lessons and soon I will be privately instructed by my cousin, which has good tennis experience. Will this help me? I also practice daily on a raquetball court and read “Tennis for Dummies”. Please no rude comments. Thanks!

Hello~
I am in middle school right now(6th grade). Nobody in my school plays tennis, so I’m not really sure. I just started to take tennis lessons, and I’m just curious. AND NO I AM NOT PLAYING TENNIS TO BE POPULAR! If it is true that most tennis players are popular, then cool, its a nice thing. If not, no biggie, I can still play tennis. LOL.
Soooo….just really curious.

Thanks in advance~

p.s. are guys in your school into sporty aka tennis players? And again NOT playing tennis for the guys. I love tennis! I was just wondering cause if it is true then its a plus! If not, I don’t really care.

Should i take field hockey lessons this summer or tennis lessons? I need to choose one, because i want to sign up for one of them in highschool. (going into 9th grade) which is better to take and why?

If I go for Tennis lessons at verney tennis or like any other place do i have to go and find my own outfit from a mall or something then buy it or do they give you choices then you give them money for an outfit??
