Function

Physical readiness in tennis involves having the overall capacity to meet the sport's physical demands, which vary by age and developmental stage.

Players must master fundamental movements—like throwing, catching, jumping, running, and changing direction—before progressing to tennis-specific skills. Early training should focus on developing these basic skills through diverse sports.

As players advance, they incorporate more complex movements and refine tennis-specific techniques, such as upper and lower body coordination and reaction abilities. Ultimately, they must perform these skills under significant time pressure to excel at competitive levels.
