Shailu Srithar-Tennis

Shailu is under the LTA Futures Programme which is designed to identify national standard talent.

Shailu trains at Taunton Tennis Club and we have been working on all aspects of her physical development to ensure that she develops into the best athlete as she can.  Training incorporates elements of strength, speed, agility, flexibility, and power . Exercises are designed to avoid developing too many imbalances as is common in one sided sports.

Many activities are both competitive and fun to get the most out of the training and making sure it is kept fun. In addition the aim is to instil good habits of warming up and warming down and the importance of these aspects so that she can put them into her tournaments.

Shailu always has a positive attitude to her training and particularly likes the timed elements to see if she can beat previous goes!  Hopefully this attitude will enable her to fulfil her talent.
