Mic’d Up Tennis Match: Coach vs Coach

Mic’d Up Match vs a Tennis Coach
Starting a new series of videos where I play matches against a range of players and coaches whilst both wearing microphones.
As well as being a fun way for me to make you videos, it’s going to mean that I can actually start playing more tennis and hopefully share some useful insights with you.
This first one was with one of our coaching team, Ollie. Neither of us played well, but that’s how tennis can go sometimes!
From my perspective, neither of us made enough first serves, but my second serve still did enough damage to hold serve comfortably. Ollie’s serves didn’t hurt me and I was able to dictate points. In the past against Ollie, that would’ve been the same, but in his playing days he’d be able to hang in the rally for much longer and make life awkward for me. In this set, he just couldn’t find his timing and struggled to string his usual quality shots together.
I honestly think that the new balls helped me and although I play only one or two competitive matches a year, that’s one or two more than Ollie has for 20 years!!
There were a couple of hiccups with my microphone falling off but I think we can make the format work… but, I’d love your feedback! Let me know if you would add or change anything in future videos?
Thanks for watching and for your support!
