The author did a good job at explain the four basic racquetball serves. He started by generally describing the primarily serving goal, pointing out that in order to win a 15 point game, at least 5 points should come from serves that were not returned by the opponent. After the brief introduction, the author provided clear and detailed information about each serve. He started by describing the serve Z and The Drive, which are attacking serves. I liked how he mentioned that these 2 serves should be tried at the first serving attempt because they are more complicated and therefore more likely to be a fault. After the attacking serves, he described the high-lob and half-lob. These are serves that should be tried at the second serving attempted

The many things I have doubted have actually come true and I fear for the worst. Yes, it has been a while since I’ve last composed a note in this diary, but it is because I haven’t been sleeping well and trying to get a grasp on what has been happening. Additionally, it has gone around that there is a meeting being planned at the tennis court by the unruly third estate. Moreover, it does not sound good, and I think they are planning to do something harmful or deadly and I just hope my husband doesn’t interfere with the situation, for I care about him dearly and want nothing to happen to him.
Throughout my high school experience I have been part of the Allen Eagles Competitive Shooting Team (AECST). For those of you not aware competitive shooting is a sport where athletes use shotguns to shoot clay pigeons in a variety of games, with the main three being: skeet, trap and sporting clays. Since the moment I began practicing and competing with the AECST I have noticed subtle changes in my day to day life such as being more responsible and respectful to my peers.

Richard Robeson and Nancy M.P. King both indicate that “families and players have been deliberately mislead about the hidden dangers of playing professional football” (334). Informed consent is crucial to any dangerous or adventurous activity. The word informed implies that a person has been given all the information and the person feels comfortable making a decision based on the facts presented. Robeson and King believe that the “inquiry into the growing controversy over concussions and football clearly shows that many decisions have been made in the absence of critically important information” (334). If concussions are a natural consequence of football, then the National Football League would have been willing to better inform their athletes by “[revealing] data from its own sponsored research” after they settled disputes in 2013 with about 4,500 disgruntled players and families; a settlement that cost the league about $765 million” (Robeson and King 335).

This story has a kid named Ryan join a tennis class with people who speak Russian. Ryan is passive because when he goes to a tennis class the instructor and the students all spoke Russian in their class. In the story it said that “for five weeks Ryan tried to make it look like he understood the class when they spoke to him in Russian.” (pg.27)The more Ryan tried to understand what they were saying, the more confused he got. The story says “Vera elbowed me and said to me what sounded like a question.
I used to poke fun at tennis, moving my head from side to side, mimicking the motion of watching a tennis match. I honestly thought it to be boring and wondered “how hard could it be to hit the ball over the net”? I discovered that tennis is not only an amazing sport, it’s a sport that can last a lifetime, from childhood to adulthood and my two children are great examples. For our family, tennis began as summer entertainment for my two children. Instead of bumming around summer break, watching TV or playing video games, I strongly encouraged them to participate in a new instructional tennis class geared towards the beginner.
This helped me stay in the same area without stressing too much whilst placing the ball on the other side of the court for my partner.

I personally enjoy singles way more than doubles because there is more control to where the ball hits and there is less pressure of not letting your partner out. There is also the issue of miscommunication with a partner.
