Abstract	How many physical education programs incorporate tennis into the curriculum? How many physical educators feel proficient enough to teach tennis? Equally important, do students truly make progress when tennis is taught? Tennis instruction in secondary physical education settings is often frustrating for students and teachers alike. Many physical educators do not teach tennis because they are not tennis players themselves. Tennis, like golf, is usually left to private instruction or taught only by those with tennis experience. Schools that do teach tennis as part of their curriculum often end up repeating the same skills and drills year after year, with minimal student success. The first section of this article describes modern groundstroke theory, keys for developing effective volleys, and step-by-step instruction on how to develop a proficient serve. It also provides cues that instructors can use when implementing these skill lessons. The second section describes ways for teachers and their students to get the most out of skills and drills. (Contains 9 figures.) (Author).
