Playing Tennis

Tennis is one of the sports, which I really like.  My favourite tennis player is Maria Sharapova  I follow tennis however I never really knew how to play it properly.  This summer was a good opportunity for me to make up for tennis.   One of my closest friends is really good at tennis and I asked her to teach me.  We were playing tennis every week.  

I was familiar with the rules more or less however I didn't now that the server had to keep one foot on the ground at all times.  It was weary to hit the  tennis ball however it was a bit hard for me to hit the ball back and I had a lot of misses.  At the end my friend said that my tennis playing skills have improved.
