Why I love tennis
Do exercise to improve your concentration!
Story by Melina Cartalet
Have you ever heard the shouts of happiness when a tennis player wins a five-hour-match ? Fighting for hours, with all your body and all your determination to show to your opponent that you're the best, can involve a lot of things you don't think about first of all.
Indeed, playing tennis doesn't require only an important level of strength. It also involves extremely good concentration and mental strength. It's true that sometimes the strongest player is not going to win because his opponent has better tactics. Strategy has a really important role in a tennis match. Playing tennis can help you to improve your concentration because you need to focus on only one thing for, sometimes, hours: The Ball.
If you're thinking of taking it up yourself, you have to be determined at the beginning because the first few times you might not succeed in putting the ball where you want. But, this sport doesn't need special skills ; you just need to practice. I have only one piece of advice regarding the equipment. When you choose your racket, be careful of its weight, because if it's too heavy or too light you might have some difficulties in playing.
And don't be put off by your first attempts if they aren't what you expected. The first time Djokovic played, he was like you!
