  • Resumen

  • In this episode of the 'My Tennis Coaching' podcast, Steve challenges the traditional approach of teaching tennis beginners to catch the ball before hitting it.


    The discussion, inspired by a recent conversation with fellow coaches, explores the misconception that catching is an easier skill and a necessary precursor to hitting.


    The episode argues that catching and hitting are distinct skills requiring different affordances and interactions with the environment.


    Steve advocates for allowing beginners to play tennis from the start, emphasizing the development of perception-action skills, adaptability, and dynamic movement through direct engagement with the sport.


    The episode calls for tennis coaches to move away from outdated methods that delay player progress and to create more effective, play-focused learning environments. 00:00 Introduction and Welcome 00:40 The Catching Debate in Tennis Coaching 01:46 Challenges of Catching for Beginners 02:24 Perception and Action in Tennis 04:44 Ecological Perspective on Skills 06:57 The Myth of Skill Transfer 08:13 Encouraging Play from Day One 15:31 Conclusion and Final Thoughts
