The Home-Base Method of Teaching Tennis
Prusak, Keven A.; Barney, David; Hager, Ron
Journal of Physical Education, Recreation & Dance, v92 n8 p43-49 2021
Motor learning experts suggest that it is best to begin by teaching the whole skill rather than break it down into its component parts. Yet, most skill instruction is approached using a list of part-skill cues as are commonly taught in PETE programs. This article examines how to teach tennis skills using whole-skill cueing in a method developed for National Ski School instruction called the home-base. Teachers and coaches may use the home-base principles discussed herein to develop whole-skill cues for a variety of other sports.
