ABSTRACT:
A tennis game and training apparatus comprising a pair of relatively low tables adjustably spaced from a substantially higher and wider net structure to form an assemblage which provides, on a small scale, playing surfaces generally proportional to playing surfaces of a regulation tennis court, whereby side and underhand ball stroking in use of the apparatus affords practice and training for playing on a regulation court. A typical apparatus incorporates a unique net structure 36-inches high and 18-inches deep, and two tables measuring 6-feet in width, 4-feet in depth and 21-inches in height, adjustably spaced from the net structure to dispose remote table edges approximately 12 to 17-feet apart. Each table surface is divided transversely into three equal size playing areas, with the central playing area being added respectively to the left and right playing areas for designating the left and right service courts. The apparatus can be used with standard Ping Pong balls and paddles, although it is preferable to use slightly larger balls and slightly longer handled paddles or racquets.
