Training should account for children’s cognitive, emotional, social, physical and motor development. This article highlights the cornerstones of early tennis teaching, including fundamental motor skills, which help to develop more complex motor actions, and motor abilities, especially strength fitness, which determines posture, jumping, running and throws. This is achieved through fun plays and games, which should include various coordination tasks providing motor experiences and develop more complex actions in future.</p>}, number={85}, journal={ITF Coaching & Sport Science Review }, author={Lelonek, Magdalena and Unierzyski, Piotr and Lelonek, Grzegorz}, year={2021}, month={Dec.}, pages={42–45} }
