When watching tennis matches among practitioners of
the sport, especially beginners, I realize that there is much indecision by
them at the time of driving the ball into the opponent's court. They bounce
cross and parallel balls without any criteria. The right choice to direct the
balls in parallel or cross has a very important value in the outcome of a
match. There are some criteria for the correct choice, such as: What is the hit
probability of a coup in parallel and cross? What is the purpose in directing
the ball to such a place?
Initially, the height will comment on the network. The
network is highest at the ends (107,0) in the center and lowest (91.4 cm).
Thus, the ball directed towards the cross undergoes a lower network, increasing
the margin of accuracy in relation to the parallel, which involves a higher
network (figure 1)

Now, when you play against your partner pay attention
to the path that the ball is up the other side of the court. Compared with the
parallel, directed the ball to cross takes a longer route to reach the
opponent's home field line. With this, the ball has more time to fall and
therefore bouncing inside the court. Therefore, considering probability of hit,
the ball is directed to cross over safely (Figure 2)

And what happens when you " delay " a scam ?
When you delay a scam trying to drive to the parallel , your ball will probably
leave the hall . However, when you delay a scam trying to drive cross probably
your ball will fall in center court . This causes the index errors in parallel
is greater every time delay a blow.
Note : The term means delayed make contact the ball behind
the body.
As we can see , the probability of error are higher in
parallel compared to the crusade. During a tennis match , the ball changes the
back of the court , 70 % to 80 % of the balls are directed to cross . The other
20 % to 30% are directed towards parallel .
The change of direction in parallel , is usually
performed when the player goes to the definition of a point or to change the
direction of the ball to throw it more vulnerable opponent's blow .
This makes us think that when a blow is well conducted
in parallel with quality, the chances of winning are greater point . However ,
many errors occur in parallel . Most of these errors are not caused by
technical failure of a coup , but by a wrong decision at the time of execution
of the coup . The following tips will comment on probability of success in
cross and parallel .
.
Tip 1 : When your opponent throw a deep ball, a chance to
slow the ball is larger. If you choose to play on the ball in parallel , the
chances of error increase even more . So , with deep balls coming from the
opponent , look them in the crusade returns . When the ball comes shorter , you
'll have more time and can risk a coup in parallel .
Tip 2 : Another difficult to run the ball parallel is the
low balls . Think , if the network is higher in the black ball and the opponent
comes too low , the chances of error increase risk in parallel . Look pass the
ball crossed and wait a ball closer to the waist line .
Therefore , the exchanges of the ball in the back
court , give preference to cross balls . Look bounce these balls with good
margin over the net , as will further decrease its rate of unforced errors .
When you choose for the ball in parallel , wait a better ball not to give free
points to your opponent.
