Recently  i have had an exchange with a person on the suitability for a sport and decided to come up with a post on a suitability. The decision making on whether you’re suited for the sport is subjective to individuals because they know themselves best. But I’ld like to add that it should be over a period of time instead of a one or two off occasion. This is because you then have enough traction to understand the game and see if you really like it.

It takes time for someone to get the hang of a certain sport but different people have different strengths. So someone who’s more talented could be spending less time learning it ( and so seems more suited for the sport) comparing to someone who may be less talented or less inclined to the sport ( lack of ball sense or whatsoever). Hence, it will take more time to build that success for him/her.

I should say the important factor would be to enjoy the process of the learning and for tennis, it can be playing a game or regards it as an exercise for many is good enough. But to shortchange yourself by predicting too early if the sport is for you yet may be too premature but to give it a short period of time say maybe 5-10 sessions to try to master the art.

It might not be for you, at least you have tried it and moved on to the next. But I’m sure you’ll still be able to get some endorphins going for you at least! Wishing all a happy 2017 and may it be a wonderful one for you!
