PHS Girls' Tennis Welcome! Welcome to the PHS Girls' Tennis page! Here you can find information about tryouts, training videos, tennis strategy, inspiration, and more! 3x a week: Fitness: Timed 1 mile run, or run 2+ miles (either time yourself for running a mile, and try to keep shaving seconds off your time, or run 2 or more miles to work on endurance) 2x a week: Footwork/cardio/strength drills: 15-20 minutes (check out the videos on the "Training videos" page to the left) 2-3x a week: Racket work: either find a family member to rally with in your driveway, or a wall or garage door (gently!) to work on volleys, quick hands, or some mini-tennis, or get back out on court when possible! Watch this video of Nadal and the "Wimbjuggledon" challenge... how many times can you bounce the ball on your racket frame? While 406 is a bit of a stretch, practice it a bit now, and we can hopefully have a competition in the fall when we're back on court!
