This video is of low quality due to being shot on the camera of a smartphone. To improve this one would need to use a video camera designed especially for the purpose of recording videos with a higher megpixel value.
The footage was shot at floor level which means not all of the activity was included (at times the shuttlecock is out of view). To improve on this, one could shoot from a balcony level or shooting at higher levels by any other means. This would provide better, more inclusive footage.
To improve this footage further, one could use a tripod to avoid vibration distortion. This would result in a clearer video, easier for coaches and players alike to analyse and utilise.
Shooting from a higher level coupled with using a tripod would reduce the need for movement (due to having all the activity in shot) whilst producing clearer footage.
Tennis demands a unique combination of endurance, power, agility, and flexibility. Physical preparation determines how long careers last and how players perform when it matters most.
Ecological dynamics is transforming tennis coaching. This constraints-led approach develops adaptable, creative players who can solve problems in competition, not just execute drilled patterns.
The one-handed backhand is becoming rare, but when executed well, it remains one of tennis's most elegant and effective shots. Is it a dying art or a tactical advantage?
