Tennis play worldwide has been heavily impacted by COVID-19, with many of our landmark events not being played or postponed to non-traditional times. Many tennis facilities have had to close due to governmental restrictions to stem the growth of the coronavirus pandemic. As we start to come out of this lockdown, there is an opportunity to leverage the health benefits and natural physical distancing aspects of tennis to come out stronger and increase our global awareness of our sport, where one can play while having fun at any age. A major stakeholder in this realization is the coach. It is hoped that this article can provide some practical insight into how with a laser focus on learning methodology, skill acquisition, and a player-centered approach, we can accommodate, adapt and grow our sport.

As they say, times of crisis are times of opportunity. This is undoubtedly one of the most difficult times that the world in general, and tennis coaches in particular, have lived through. Despite the seriousness of the situation, it is very important that the coaches try to find opportunities to grow in this complicated situation. This article proposes some ideas of how coaches can take advantage of new opportunities related to the new world after COVID19, training, teamwork and the values associated with tennis. Maintaining a positive attitude, the coaches will be able to come out stronger and make tennis do it the same way.

The paper analyses the situation of the contracts to provide services that persons or sport organisations agree with their students in the context of expanded health crisis worldwide caused by the coronavirus. Given the diverse background of the readers, reference to specific national or local regulations will be avoided. Instead, general principles of the service contract contained in some studies that have dealt with the transnational harmonisation of private law are considered.

Innovation in sports has been defined as the adoption and use of a novel idea or behaviour by an organisation. The COVID-19 has created an unprecedented situation worldwide. It has affected all aspects of human existence, and sports among them. Using innovation as the main competitive strategy tool, tennis should be positioned as one of the, if not the safest, sport to play in the current climate. This paper aims to reflect on the opportunities for innovation that the pandemic has created for tennis. It presents the different types of tennis organisations and their various approaches to innovation. It suggests possible initiatives that can be implemented by the stakeholders and it discusses alternatives to adapt to the new scenario.

In the United States, collegiate sport is intimately tied to American Higher Education. In other words, National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) student-athletes are first and foremost students, and the NCAA governance is interwoven with higher education governance. While the structure of typical student life may evolve over time, and while student-athletes, like other students who are pursuing passions beyond the traditional classroom and invest intensely in the development of their unique skills, being a student is and will continue to be an essential function of being a student-athlete.

There is growing evidence of the impact of COVID-19 on the mental health of individuals throughout the world. Coaches are not immune from this risk as they continue to see their livelihoods affected with closures and restrictions. This paper examines what coaches can do to mitigate the mental health consequences of the COVID-19 crisis. A number of key strategies are put forward for coaches to consider in preparation of a ‘new normal’.

This article, which is based on contributions from coaches and specialists, shares some proposals and suggestions that will allow the return to tennis activity in the best possible way. The information provided is structured into prior considerations, considerations before entering the court, development of tennis sessions and the end of the activity. We hope that these proposals will make it easier for coaches to return to the tennis court.

Many studies have focused on isolated tactical characteristics of tennis and have given less importance to the female game. The goal of this article was to create, based on the existing literature and the observation on the women’s game, the PETF indicator (Pattern success of women 's tennis), which tries to gather the most important tactical needs of the women’s game, and to validate them through questionnaires answered by active players from the WTA circuit and ITF World Tour, seeking to achieve a consensus on the key aspects and analyse their tactical knowledge.
许多研究都集中在孤立的网球战术特征上,而对女子比赛的重视程度较低。本文的目标是在现有文献的基础上,通过对女子网球比赛的观察,创建PETF指标(Pattern success of women’s tennis),试图收集女子网球比赛中最重要的战术需求,并通过对WTA巡回赛和ITF世界巡回赛现役球员的问卷调查来验证这些需求,寻求在关键方面达成共识,并分析他们的战术知识。

Sports coaching research can portray an overly simplistic picture of the activity leading to young coaches being underprepared for intra-personal conflicts during coaching careers (Cushion, 2006; Jones, 2009; Potrac et al., 2016). This paper builds on work that shows coaching is emotionally challenging (Thelwell, 2017; Gowling, 2019). Autoethnography illustrates the first authors inner struggles with their perceived effectiveness while trying to prove their worth in the elite junior coaching context. There are four main findings (1) the performance narrative influences young coaches’ behaviour; (2) inability to assess one’s own effectiveness, without using player results as the sole criteria can have a negative emotional effect on coaches; (3) relational narratives are present in elite junior coaching; (4) provides governing bodies with opportunities to improve the preparation of young coaches for intra-personal challenges related to coaching.
体育教练研究过于简单地描绘了导致年轻教练在教练生涯中对个人冲突准备不足的活动(Cushion, 2006;琼斯,2009;Potrac et al., 2016)。本文的研究表明,教练在情感上具有挑战性(Thelwell, 2017;Gowling, 2019)。《自我民族志》阐述了第一作者在试图证明自己在精英初级教练背景下的价值时,与自己感知到的有效性进行的内心斗争。研究发现:(1)绩效叙事对青年教练员行为的影响;(2)不以球员成绩为唯一标准,无法评估自己的效能,会对教练产生负面的情绪影响;(3)关系叙事在精英青少年教练中存在;(4)为管理机构提供机会,以改善年轻教练对与教练相关的个人内部挑战的准备。
