https://doi.org/10.52383/itfcoaching.v22i63.502Keywords:
Wheelchair tennis, Competition, Playing pattern, Physiological demandsAbstract
Since wheelchair tennis became a paralympic sport in Barcelona ´92, it has developed professionally, and the number of scientific publications on this subject has grown accordingly. This article gathers the information that describes the temporal structure and the physiological demands of wheelchair tennis in order to improve the quality of the current coaching systems.
