The Courtside
Notebook: A helpful guide for players with helpful comments, and room for taking notes about Play.
We would like to thank District 15 JTT & NJTL Junior Olympic Association for providing the rights to, “The Court Side Notebook” to the
FHSTCA. We have reproduced the book, minus duplications of “Scouting Questions” and “Your Preparation” pages and commercial pages.
Indian River, Martin, Okeechobee, and Saint Lucie Counties have previously used this 2000 book.
Florida tennis coaches and high school players will now be able to copy the “Scouting Question” and “Your Preparation” pages during the tennis season.

The
Fundamental Movements in Sports: By:
Vic Borgogno
Anticipation skills must be developed,
but should not be confused with timing the split-step. Both can be
used to maximize your abilities of getting to the best possible
position when retrieving the next ball. Timing the split-step properly
allows the player to be moving at maximum speed (or ready to start
moving) at exactly the time they determine the direction of the
incoming ball, independently of where they are on court. Other
refinements or adjustments for ball speed, spin, depth, and contact
point, can be made as the motion towards the ball proceeds, but
determining the direction is top priority.
