2020-10-25
Full of excitement and success, which attracts fans from all over the country - this is how we can describe the game of tennis! However, it is the successes of our Polish players - Agnieszka Radwańska, Hubert Hurkacz, or the last victory of the Iga Świątek at the French Open that additionally encourage you to try your hand at tennis court. Tennis is a year-round sport discipline - it can be played both outdoors and on closed tennis courts, and most importantly, it stimulates our mind and has a positive impact on our health. So it's worth to start your tennis adventure not only passively - watching the matches of your favourite players, but also actively.
TENNIS COURT DIMENSIONS
Tennis also has its own strict rules, including precisely defined dimensions of a rectangular tennis court.
Tennis court width for single game - 8.23 m, for double game - 10.97m.
Length of the side of the pitch - 23.77m.
TENNIS AND ITS ESSENTIAL, I.E. THE TENNIS NET AND TENNIS POSTS
Of course, a tennis net is essential when playing tennis. It should be extremely strong and flexible, so that during strong impacts it will reduce the force of the speeding ball. In addition, external factors such as precipitation and sunlight often weaken the condition of the net, so it must also be resistant to these factors. The most popular solution, which at the same time makes it easier for players to play, is a net with a visible hem, so that players can clearly see its edges.

TOURNAMENT “EXCALIBUR” TENNIS NET |
Weather resistant, suitable for roofed and outdoor courts. It takes strong strokes effectively and is extremely durable, so it will serve for many years.
When playing tennis, it is necessary to have a net that separates the tennis court. In turn, to be stable, it requires elements to be attached, which are tennis posts. The main task of the posts is to stretch the net, which has a great impact on the comfort of play.

BALL-STOPS - PROTECTIVE NETS ON THE TENNIS COURT
The next indispensable element on the tennis court are the so-called ball-stops, that is protective nets around the court, which effectively catch the balls and not only prevent them from being lost, but also ensure the safety of people or, for example, cars or buildings in the vicinity. The ball-stops are ideal for outdoor tennis courts, but can also be used in sports halls, e.g. to separate several courts.

A “MUST HAVE” WHEN PLAYING TENNIS, THAT IS, TENNIS RACKETS AND BALLS
The basic equipment of a player who would like to start playing tennis is of course a tennis racket and a ball. What should you know before buying a rocket? First of all, for a beginner, the rocket should be lightweight, which will allow to develop appropriate technique and learn how to strike. Another important factor is the surface of the head - durable, but also in the right size, which will increase the impact power.
Tennis is not only a physical activity that affects the work of the whole body, but also the work of the brain - tactics, stroke planning, concentration. So if you're wondering if it's worth it, there's only one answer - definitely yes!
