    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    A Constraints-Led Approach to Coaching Tennis presents a new evidence based approach to develop and train tennis players. Coaching philosophy, technique, tactics, physical development and mental strength, pertaining from beginner to professional is covered. This text bridges the gap between theoretical principles from within the most recent research, and it’s practical application.


    Included are real world examples of how different sets of constraints may be manipulated in order to develop more adaptable, skilled athletes. The reader will be challenged to create athlete centered activities using variability, adaptability, and self-organization that guide individual athlete to find their own adaptable movement solutions.


    A Constraints-Led Approach to Coaching Tennis is an essential read for all tennis coaches, undergraduate students, physical education teachers, and those working within the growing racket sports industry.



    "This book provides a sound theoretical model of learning and its practical application in the coaching of tennis."


    Associate Professor Brendan Moy, Queensland University of Technology, Australia
