No Enthuaism In Doubles

by Lewis

Hello,

I'm a 12 year old boy who plays as much tennis as possible and although I have only been playing for 14 months I can compete with 15 year olds who have been playing for longer.

But when I play doubles I find no enthuaism.

I played a 5 setter last week and against a 15 year old and my opponent won 6-4 4-6 6-4 3-6 6-4.

But when it comes to doubles I don't know what to do? How can I overcome this?

Tennis doubles - a different game
by: Tomaz

Maybe doubles are boring to you or you don't know all the interesting tactics that you can play in doubles.

Doubles are also not so interesting to juniors since most of the time you just rally cross court and perhaps someone poaches once per set. ;)

Good doubles players have many different tactics to outsmart their opponent and it's this "who is smarter" game that makes doubles interesting.

Watch some high level doubles and try to figure out all the different tactics and plays they do and then practice them.

Once your "database" of doubles tactics is bigger, you'll also appreciate and enjoy the complexity and challenge of tennis doubles.
