From the Back Cover
Singles tennis may take the spotlight at center court, but for the 25 million tennis players in America, doubles is the game they play. Tennis experts estimate 80% or more of amateur tennis players play doubles, yet few books have ever focussed on the doubles player - and none so comprehensively as Winning Doubles.Here veteran tennis coach Scott Perlstein presents a clear and detailed analysis of the strategies, techniques, and shot sequences that make for a great doubles game. After discussing the nature of doubles play - everything from the doubles court and basic doubles etiquette to team signaling and advanced points-in-progress strategies - the book proceeds to a unique "playbook" format in which 150 black-and-white action photographs and step-by-step instructions address every likely doubles configuration.Winning Doubles is essential reading for doubles players at every level.
