I would use a video camera so I could show the tennis player what he or she is doing wrong. Even if he is the best player in the world, he can still improve.

Summer camp is okay, but not necessarily the best option for real improvement. I think you'll find that most of the better players improved by having a good instructor, hard working tennis partners to practice with, and strong competition. This can be achieved in a good club environment as well as at a summer camp.\nHere are some potential problems with summer camps. First, they often emply instructors who are good players but not necessarily experienced teachers. They may try to change your son's game in ways that don't work for him. Second, and this is somewhat related, there is no long-term continuity between the summer camp and your son's tennis beyond the camp experience. He needs someone who takes a long-term view of his game, and puts his learning in that context. For example, Sampras did make a significant change from a two-handed to a one-handed backhand, but all within the guidance of his long-time coach. In contrast, summer camps can lead to short-term solutions.\nHaving said all of this, summer camps can provide an environment for learning about tennis and about himself by being in an environment with many other personalities.\nThere really are quite a number of good camps around the country, and they very in how intense is the tennis versus other activities. If your goal is to provide a well-rounded experience, look for camps that provide these opportunities. If your emphasis is on his tennis, then go with a camp with a reputable and experienced tennis director and a high-level staff of mature instructors.

There are several online training programs including programs developed by former champions Mark Allen and Dave Scott. \n\nGood luck and it is a great sport.

Modern technology in some instances would be used to speed training and provide better results. \n\nFor example, I can get on my computer and literally find an answer to any question or information on any topic I choose, whereas in a non technological environment, it may prove to be difficult or near impossible to quickly learn some things, as in (The hard way). \n\nIn summation, your statement refers to dull witted and unhealthy beings, I hardly find technology to be at fault here, more like pour upbringing and substandard  public school results . . . . . . . .wouldn't you agree?\n\nDarryl S.

Hey there.... well when i was in the juniors my parents would use a program called ACE i think..... it can be used on any palm pilot.  It keeps tracks or you and your opponents errors and winner. on forehands and backhands...... it keeps track or serves and serve percentages...... also thinks like volleys it lets you get very detailed as long as you know how to enter the info correctly......

Bjorn Borg. In my opinion, Tennis has never been played as beautifully as was played by him.

Two people before me, Bella and Cruzer, have answered your question. Cruzer's answer was quite long and detailed while Bella's answer was very short and sweet.\n\nI'm a nationally certified Tennis instructor, and I can tell you that Cruzer's advice, though impressive in its detail and volume, is completely uninformed and incorrect.\n\nAlthough Bella's answer was quite short, she's completely correct. \n\nIndeed, taking PRIVATE Tennis lessons from a renowned Tennis instructor is the surest and shortest route to improvement. Rest assured that the only way to control the ball is by learning proper technique and spin, be it topspin or slice.\n\nYou might be tempted to take group lessons, but do yourself a favor and leave this to beginners. For sure, if you've been playing tennis for a while and have seen too little improvement, only PRIVATE tennis lessons will do.

Cancel your trip to the Bolletieri tennis camp ASAP. \n\nI'm a nationally certified tennis instructor, and I have several tennis students who've attended his camp. They all tell me the camp relies far too heavily on hard work, and provides far too little actual tennis technique.\n\nAnd, even though I've not actually attended his camp, I can absolutely confirm you'll receive far too little technique there. \n\nIndeed, one of my tennis instructor friends, who used to work at Bolletieri's camp, showed me the camp's instruction manual. It definitely contains far too little, as well as basically incorrect, tennis technique.\n\nIn fact, you should forget all tennis camps because they all suffer from the same problem... too little technique and too little individual attention.\n\nInstead, take PRIVATE tennis lessons from a qualified tennis instructor. This is absolutely the best bang for your tennis buck!

i'm always asking the beginners to learn the speed of tennis balls. by knowing the speed you will try to adjust your movement when you hit the ball. you need to understand that in a match the ball will never comes to you; you need to come and hit the ball. then you need to practice tennis strokes; study how other players hit the ball and try to duplicate. for this all you need is a never-ending practice.\ngood luck and enjoy tennis as i do.

A volleyball. Or tennis ball. Or birdie. Or ping pong ball.

Yes, it is something that you can learn to play and enjoy regardless of your natural coordination. Your speed of learning will depend on your natural ability and the instructor's ability to teach, along with the time you spend in quality practice and play. There are methods available today that really speed up the process. You also can learn by consulting internet sites that display and describe every stroke in tennis.

My guess must be FED EX he's an overall player able to play in any surface to perfection, better place your bets on Roger Federer.

Well one thing i have learned in my years of tennis is that..... even if you practice 4-6 hours a day you may not improve, its the quality of practice you have.  I would recomend only practing half that much but raise you intensity level to that of a tournament match.  Also i would recomend spending more time with conditioning alternate days of sprinting and distance, also you are about the age to hit the gym and start doing weights.  Over the years this has helped me improve the fastest as a tennis player.\n\nHope this helped, Good Luck!
