Today I had a discussion with my assistant Tennis Pro Mike. We're going to do an article on our Tennis website about why tennis is an awesome sport for kids. Growing up, I played many of the team sports, football, basketball and baseball. I took up tennis a lot later than most in my mid teens.
Tennis is so unique in that you really can play it your entire life, much like Golf. Young people and parents don't realize how awesome that can be. Why not take up a sport you can play longer, and that will keep you healthier and vibrant in the interim? Makes sense right? That's what I'll be writing about athttp://MiamiTennisTips.com
It's a shame that all kids see today on tv involves 3 major sports. All I can say is I'm glad I started playing tennis young. Many middle aged people I know started late, and played the other sports, I know today they wish they could have started younger.
What's your opinion? If you learned tennis in your middle aged years, do you wish you started playing as a kid, or would you still have preferred to play, baseball, football or basketball?
