Lifetime Tennis: A Nonfiction Sports Story

By KT Rome

Tennis is a great, inexpensive, lifetime sport. You can go out with one or three people or a tournament of great players. It's fun to win or win next time and still get fresh air, sunshine, friendships, exercise, and fun.

Lifetime Tennis is a quick read for athletes, especially tennis players or want-to-be tennis players. Coaches and tennis pros can give or sell it to players of all ages for inspiration and motivation. The great thing about tennis is it's a lifetime sport for all, and you don't need a whole team to play it. If you want a team, there are clubs and United States Tennis Association (USTA) teams everywhere with men's and women's singles, doubles, and mixed doubles. This book can be distributed at tournaments as well for fun read for participants or prizes along with T-shirts and water bottles.
