Game-Based vs Model-Based, Why Tennis Needs a 'Tactics First' Approach to Coaching (w/ Wayne Elderton)

Beyond the Swing Podcast - Episode 3 - Wayne Elderton

Is it really your strokes that are holding you back from your best tennis?

In this episode, Tennis Canada Level 4 coach Wayne Elderton joins the show and dives deep into ‘model’ vs ‘game-based’ coaching - and why a game-based or 'tactical' approach to coaching is more effective & efficient when it comes to learning.

Wayne and I also discuss the shot cycle, the various tennis 'situations', scaling courts + equipment for young/beginner players and his take on practices that emphasize 0-4 shots.
