Thanks so much for letting me know. It’s more work than people realize. Most everything I post is for 50+. I still have several matches to come from this tournament and a few other things I’m working on.
Thanks for sharing. I had no idea this match was being recorded. I was told at the beginning of the match they are all friends and know each other. Three of them went to the same college. Anyways, it was a very fun match to referee.
Thanks for posting. One thing that caught my eye was the high number of third shot drops that did not lead to dinking rallies. The 4th shots tended to be aggressive and put the dropping team on the defensive. I think part of that had to do with the quality of the drops and part of it was the aggressive approaches on 4ths.
The woman in blue, Jenny I think, lost most of the points where she hit or attempted a lob. She would have had a better percentage of winning points if she abandoned the lobs in most cases. Her other shots were pretty good.
Look for an open hand, means they are going to switch places after the first hit. It’s called stacking. A fist means they will stay on their side. It’s much more common when you have a left handed player, they are stronger with both of their forehands in the middle. It’s also useful to change positions if they want a different look or strategy.
The tournament had over 3,000 players in 8 days of play. Every day was a different group. This day was by 5 year age groups, with a minimum 4.0 skill level.
I would appreciate multiple camera angles, and possibly comment as the session proceeds. I think eliminating some background noise would be helpful. Thanks for posting.
Thanks for your comments. I can barely get to a match in time with one camera, let alone two or more as the location is not known until called. I will try to reduce the speakers as background noise. Post commentary is being looked at and a trial match is about to be released. It comes down to how much time do I spend editing. It’s a lot already.
@@ChrisStageman I understand Dupr is based off of results which goes to my point that top players don't bother if there's no real prize money. See how they had to combine the age classes for lack of entries.
