Schweitzer Klassifikation
I have been coaching tennis for about 18 years.
I taught myself to play tennis and only had one tennis lesson in my life.
I trained my daughter since she was 7 years old.
She was a top player in the Midwest and went on to receive a college scholarship from her tennis prowess.
This book came about from me writing down phrases I used to tell my daughter while I was training her.
I have never written a book and don't read much at all, so I made this "diary-type" thing that would intrigue me to read it if somebody else wrote it.
The book became increasingly dynamic and strange as I wanted it to show my interest in weird b-movies, beatnik poetry, abstract art, underground music, and at the same time, expressing my knowledge of tennis and out-of-the-box coaching style and concepts and my own tennis dogma.
