Download or read book Lawn Tennis in America written by Valentine G. Hall and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lawn Tennis in America: Biographical Sketches From boyhood - not so very many years ago - I have taken great delight in the game of lawn tennis. I have observed with great interest the rapid progress which the game has made in popular favor. It has been my pleasure to attend many of the tournaments referred to in the following pages, and to meet the leading players who are described therein. My notes have gradually accumulated, and have given me some busy, pleasant hours. It has occurred to me that many of the large and growing numbers of both sexes with whom tennis is popular might find these pages of some interest, and not without value. It has not been my purpose to write a history of tennis, or to attempt to instruct players - my knowledge is not sufficient for such things. If lovers of tennis find my pages of interest for pleasant reminiscence, or for reference, or for comparison with the work at the net, I shall be satisfied. I have devoted the first part of the book to biographical sketches of six of the most prominent players in America, together with accounts of all the important tournaments in this country held during 1885 to 1887, inclusive. Following this is an account of the Renshaw brothers, together with a description of the championship matches and principal tournaments of Europe. I have added a table which shows the rank of the more prominent players abroad. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lawn Tennis for Ladies S a rule an author writes a preface to explain or to apologize for a book. I shall do neither: I have tried to explain my meaning simply and clearly in the book itself, and I am optimistic enough to think that my favourite game is too popular to require an apology for increasing its litera ture, however unpretentious the attempt may be. Moreover, I am still too much affected by the brilliant and feverish glow of enthusiasm to dream of offering one. Two things only I wish to say. First, that I am writing with no academic pride, but only with a passionate fondness for what I consider a great sport, and with a keen desire to make others equally devoted.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Great Lawn Tennis Players: Their Methods Illustrated Perhaps the quickest way to improve at any game is to constantly play with those superior to ourselves possibly the next best thing is to watch the great exponents and failing both of these I venture to think action-photographs are good substitutes. But these only show, in the matter of teaching, what one has trained the eye to see. Yet action-photographs will influence where technical knowledge is lacking. My thanks are due to the various players who so kindly helped me in every way, and also to the all-england Lawn Tennis Club and Queen's Club.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lawn Tennis Lessons For those who know nothing of the game, there fore, it will be necessary to furnish a brief intro duction. The rules themselves, the measure ments of the court and such other details will be found in the last pages of this volume, but these do not actually tell one how to play the game. Briefly then, lawn tennis is played by two, three or four persons divided into teams, with one or two on each side of the net which separates the contestants. The play is called singles if only one player appears on each side and doubles if two are on each side. Occasionally two players oppose one, and then the lines of the court for singles are used on the Side with one player and the wider court for doubles is used by the side with two players.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lawn Tennis: In Our Own Country Any changes in Lawn Tennis, which the future may bring about, will probably be changes in the game itself and not in the court, upon which, or the implements with which, the game is played. There is every reason to believe that a court of 78 feet in length and 27 feet in width, and a net 3 feet high, present the best combination possible to induce Speedy play and accurate placing. The first of the -laws of Lawn Tennis, as adopted by the United States National Lawn Tennis Association, specifies the dimensions of the court and height of the net as follows.

Download or read book Tennis Topics and Tactics Classic Reprint written by Frederic William Payn and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-09-26 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tennis Topics and Tactics The use of the word tennis to mean lawn tennis in the title of this book is justified in the writer's Opinion by the facts, firstly, that everyone on the Continent and almost everyone in England under stands tennis to mean lawn tennis; and, secondly, that almost everywhere abroad and during the winter in England it is played on courts which are not lawns at all. The existence of half a dozen courts in the whole of England for the playing of a rare and obso lete game is not sufficient to monopoliise the use of the well-known word tennis. Nearly all the chapters in the book, with the exception of those on The Back hand Strokes (no. VI.) and on Tactics in Doubles (no. Are either very short or fairly short, and can be consumed separately as literary hors d'aauvres, while the two chapters named may be regarded as the more solid but, it is hoped, not unappetising portions of the meal.
