tennis, sport initiation, competition, Tennis 10sAbstract
More than 10 years have gone by since Play and Stay campaign was launched, and even today, there is a lack of scientific studies focusing their strategies on the transition process between the stages that make up Tennis 10s. So, on the basis of interviews with expert coordinators, who are responsible for sport initiation programmes in Brazilian clubs, this study tries to describe the strategies used for the transition between the “green ball” and the “yellow ball”.
