The summer has begun – It is time to play tennis.

Thank you for visiting my yourtennisteam site. You can play tennis even from 3 to 103 years old. Now I tell you Tips Why and How to Play Tennis [8 Easy Reasons]. I think the sky is the only limit, but I want to share with you a few reasons. You can add more in the comments, please.

WHY to play tennis

1. Energy and Feeling good

When you play tennis you feel good. They said that people who play tennis are more cheerful, energetic, and happier. They love what they do and do what they love.

2. Fresh Air

You get fresh air when you play outside. For example, when you are on holiday, there may be by the hotel the tennis court. It is an easy way to get fresh air with different tennis courts with a new view.

For example, I have played tennis in Finland in many places, for example in Oulu, Oulujärvi, and Saimaa. And also abroad: Canary Islands, in Tenerife and in Thailand, in Chian Mai. So beautiful places to spend a holiday with fresh air.

3. Relax

It is so rewarding to play one or two hours tennis and after a shower, your feeling is so relaxing. It’s amazing and you want to relax with tennis also next time. And still when you are playing it is so relaxing to concentrate only on the game so you forget the other things for a while that might challenge you in your life.

4. Pleasant Company

You have so many choices to play tennis with. For example your family, your neighbor, your workmate, your schoolmate, etc. If you want, you can collect for example What’sup group whose name is Your or Our Tennis Team. For example, I use it.

Only collect first the people who are interested in sports or only tennis. Send a group invitation and book a court to a certain hour or hours. It is easy and simple.

You get social fun also before, during, and after the match. And all these benefits from the amateur to the competition level.

5. Physical Exercise

It is so rewarding to get also physical exercise in a tennis game. You make quick moves and move fast. It is good for your flexibility and body balance. You sweat, so you lose calories and keep fit.

Tennis is both the aerobic and anaerobic sport. You train very variously by playing tennis. It makes also good for your body.

HOW to play tennis

1. Alone

You can practice many ways by yourself. For example, when you are waiting for your pair to play or you just want to practice by yourself to get a better touch to play. You can go to hit the ball against the wall for a while or you can use ball machines. It improves your hit and timing.

You can practice the first serve many times one after another. You can practice your footwork by running quickly on the court. So you can get better even practicing by yourself.

2. With Your pair

It is a pleasant way to spend your time with your family or friends playing tennis. You can only play for fun and exercise or with real rules of tennis. They are easy to learn. I tell the rules in my other post. You can go for a picnic or swim after the game.

For example, I started this tennis season with playing tennis for two hours in sunny weather and after sweating with the nice play of tennis we went swimming to the nearest lake for the first time after winter. You can guess the feeling: it was amazing, relaxing and happy.

3. Tennis Doubles

If there are four of you, then you can play doubles. It is twice as fun as only with your pair. On both sides there are two players. The playing area in this game is a little bigger. The lines are in the court. Playing doubles is also absolutely a great way to improve your single game in tennis.

The Water

This is what you also need on the tennis court while playing: the water bottle.

We need to drink about 2 liters of water per day. Don’t forget to drink especially during your tennis game. It is very important.

The Best Sports Water bottle in great colors to choose from.
The package includes:

1. Strainer
2. Sponge Brush
3. Many different favourite colors
