Tennis 4 Learning activities use the court, tennis games, tennis history, and tennis skills as opportunities to explore and learn a multitude of life-enhancing and academic skills. Problems which seem dry and difficult in the traditional classroom are transformed into visual, physical, fun activities on the court or at alternative tennis venues like parking lots and gymnasiums.
This website is not for students and players! Rather, tennis4learning.com is a “train-the-trainers” tool for teachers and coaches. The activities provided here are just a starting point — they barely scratch the surface of what you can teach in a “tennis context”. For some activities, videos or “activity cards” describe court setups, provide lists of accessories needed, and offer step-by-step instructions. You may want to start with these activities, but very quickly, we’re sure you will be freelancing your own! And when you do, please register with us so you can contribute your activities and ideas to others!
