LI : to learn how to play tennis.

This week was the last week for tennis. We were doing 1 v 1s, we had the same rules from last week but a little bit of it was changed. We played in a small court and the challenger serve the ball. After 40 minutes the champions on our court would all verse each other.

LI : To learn new skills in tennis
This week was like a challenge week, we would be in a duo/partner with someone and we would rally with another duo/partner. We had a few rules such as, the champions had two lives well challengers have 1,and the ball cannot enter a certain space and so on. After a few rounds the champions from another court would vs each other. This week was preparing us for next week when its only us and no partners.

LI : To learn the basic grip on a tennis racket
The first thing we did before picking up a racket and playing tennis was a warm up. So we got into pairs, and one person dropped a ball way above someone's hands. The person had to try and flip their hands in time to catch the ball, this was a warm up to test our reactions.

After that we picked up a tennis racket and learned the forehand and backhand technique, one hand had to be at the bottom of the racket, this hand was our dominant hand. Well the backhand had two hands  of the racket dominate at the same time, one hand was at bottom and the other hand holds above the other hand.
