Читать книгу Tennis Method - Defined Timing - Siegfried Rudel - Страница 7

It needs no further consideration to identify the ball as the object which the tennis player must focus his eyes on and which he must observe (figure 1). in spite of this, the teaching method which is still used today pretends that the ball does not exist. Although all the player's movement sequences are described in detail, he is kept 'blind'. The instruction "Look at the ball!" only shows the uselessness of this method, which does not make it possible to relate the player's movement form to his perception, which takes place simultaneously. Only if it were possible to establish this relation between the movement of the racket face and the movement of the ball, would the demand to consider perception and movement always as a unit be fulfilled. This means that the movement of the racket face must be related to the movement of the ball, which is the object of perception as far as space and time are concerned. Thus, timing is placed at the centre of attention!
