    Endlich mal ein Buch, dass ein normaler Vereinstrainer wirklich verwenden kann! Es ist nicht nur einzigartig durch die tollen Videos, die bei jeder Übung verlinkt ist, sondern auch die vielen Bilder und exakten Beschreibungen lassen einen die Spiel-und Übungsformen sofort verstehen. Man merkt einfach, dass alles tatsächlich aus der Trainerpraxis stammt. Ein absolutes Must-have für jeden Verein(strainer).

    1734g geballtes Wissen. Meines wiegt jedenfalls soviel – ohne Lesezeichen.
    Neben den sehr gut gegliederten praktischen Übungen ist auch ein sehr ausführlicher und wertvoller theoretischer Teil enthalten. Gewürzt mit Anekdoten und persönlichen Erfahrungen. Informativ und unterhaltsam.

    Top-Ratgeber mit überschaubaren, knackigen Absätzen ohne Aufkommen von Langatmigkeit.
    Alles rund um Organisation und Durchführung von Vereinsarbeit im Tennisclub; vor allem natürlich der Trainertätigkeit präsentiert von unserem sympathischen Martin. Im digitalen Zeitalter seit langem nochmal Zuwachs in meinem Bücherregal. Klare Empfehlung. Die lange Arbeit und Mühe hat sich wirklich gelohnt !

    Als jemand, der erst vor etwa zwei Jahren mit dem Tennisspielen begonnen hat und sich inzwischen entschieden hat, einen Trainerschein zu machen, war ich auf der Suche nach einem verständlichen und praxisnahen Buch, das mich auf diesem Weg unterstützt. Genau das habe ich mit diesem Tennistrainerbuch gefunden.

    Das Buch ist außergewöhnlich klar strukturiert und unglaublich gut verständlich geschrieben – selbst für jemanden wie mich, der noch nicht lange im Tennis zuhause ist. Martin erklärt technische, taktische und methodische Inhalte so, dass man sie nicht nur schnell nachvollziehen, sondern auch direkt auf dem Platz anwenden kann. Besonders wertvoll fand ich die vielen praxisnahen Beispiele, die detaillierten Erklärungen zur Trainingsgestaltung und die Hinweise, worauf Trainer in unterschiedlichen Alters- und Leistungsklassen achten sollten.

    Nachdem ich mich entschieden hatte, den Trainerschein zu machen, habe ich mir das Buch gekauft – und es hat sich sofort bezahlt gemacht. Ich habe unzählige hilfreiche Tipps daraus mitgenommen, sowohl für mein eigenes Spiel als auch für das zukünftige Training mit anderen. Viele Übungen konnte ich direkt ausprobieren, was mir enorm geholfen hat, ein besseres Verständnis für Bewegungsabläufe und Trainingsmethoden zu entwickeln.

    Insgesamt kann ich das Buch allen empfehlen, die sich auf ihren Weg als Tennistrainer vorbereiten oder ihr Wissen vertiefen möchten. Es ist ein idealer Begleiter, fachlich fundiert und zugleich so geschrieben, dass man sich sofort abgeholt fühlt. Für mich war es genau die Unterstützung, die ich gebraucht habe.

    Hi Martin,
    tolles Buch. Hilft mir mir bei meiner Arbeit als Tennistrainer sehr. Auch die Möglichkeit über das Scannen mir die Übungen, zum besseren Verständnis, nochmals anzuschauen, finde ich sehr gut.
