For those who are interested in a more individualized sport, tennis is one of the popular options. This particular game is built to show strength, durability, and grace all at the same time. If you are looking at the possibilities for participating in tennis, you can begin by understanding the basics of the game. Tennis is not a game that was invented at any recent time. In fact, the game has been traced back to the ancient Greeks and was played casually among several cultures for centuries. By the year 1874, the name tennis was patented and became a standard game around the world. It first became popular in French, then spread to Portugal and England, eventually moving to a world wide known game. Tennis begins in a court that is about seventy-eight feet long and twenty-seven feet wide. It will either be made of grass, clay, or concrete, depending on the texture that is needed for the game. One player will be on each side of the court with a net stretched all the way across the middle in order to divide them. One of the players will begin by serving the ball and the other player will be designated to receive the ball. The objective of tennis is to get the most points by getting the opponent to miss the ball. If they are not able to hit the ball back over the net with a racket, then it is a point for the other side. If the ball bounces more than once, if it goes out of bounds, hits the net on the way back or is missed, then the opposing side will gain a point. Usually, there will be five sets in a tennis match, all which will be added together with the points that are made by each side striking the other out. If you are looking into the game of tennis, this is where to begin. The basics of the game allow one to see what the main objective and goal is in order to win. By doing this, one will have the ability to take their playing abilities to the court.
