Post-Match Data

Exactly that.

1. What were you aiming to gain from this event?

2. Were you trying to win every match?

3. Work on some game specifics?

4. Play to your advantages or just focus on the opponent's weakness?

5. All or none of the above?

This all depends on your mindset during the days or weeks of preparation before the event begins. What did you focus on? What did you want to accomplish?

For now, this post is focused solely on post match data and analysis.

Here are the steps we must take:

1. We must gather data (what went well, didn't go well, etc). This allows for and understanding of what to improve for the next event.

2. Spend at least a week or two working on those improvements. Not just in practice and training. Practice matches/point-play situations must be incorporated to gain confidence in the new adjustments.

3. Sign up up for the next event and try again.

4. Repeat the process.

This is Development.

This is Progress.

This is how Tennis Development works best.

I've developed a Post-Match Analysis download (below). Additionally, there's an example from a match I participated in for reference (below). This will enable you to review and ensure that all crucial elements of the event are documented. We can compare this analysis with those from subsequent events to ensure that issues aren't recurring, as this indicates a need for further training in that area or a lack of execution.

Train with intention and the wins will come.
