WSTA is here, and that is exactly what we are all about.This book is an introduction to a tennis training system designed to help those in their 40s, 50s, 60s and even 70s learn to play a better, more aggressive, and certainly much more enjoyable tennis, as well as one that is a whole lot easier on the ole' bones.When talking to tennis players my age (seniors), the same ideas come up. They say, “Boy, I would love to beat John or Sue—they beat me every week. I wonder what I can do to improve my tennis game at my age and also not be sore for the next three days…”Well, I have the answer for you, plus those to a lot of other questions, too.
