With this protocol for the student, we have created a Safety Guide to develop their activity on the court. Following the advice of the WHO, National Health Adminitration, RFET, and with the great support of FTM, we have adapted the information so that tennis players can train as safely as possible. We will continually edit and expand these tips, in addition to adapting them to the de-escalation phases. We hope they help you to play tennis safely. At the end of the article, you will find some interesting links on the same topic.
If you have any questions, leave us a comment and we will respond as soon as possible.
