Abstract
<p><strong>Background</strong>: Tennis develops faster nowadays, and tennis players are able to powerfully hit from a variety of angles. Effective training and planning will help achieve these goals by designing safe, effective and productive programs to optimize the performance of tennis players. <strong>Objective</strong>: This study examined the effectiveness of open and closed stance forehand stroke in terms of percentage of success, accuracy and also investigated whether there is a relationship between the level of accuracy and the choice of forehand stroke used by tennis players. <strong>Method</strong>: Participants were divided into two groups, namely males and females who were included in the junior players category of 12 – 16 years old. The participants were tested using two skill tests for the percentage of success and the level of accuracy.<strong> Results:</strong> It was found that the closed stance forehand stroke had a much better percentage of success and accuracy in junior tennis players, but the difference was not significant. In addition, male players showed more precision and success in this study, and also accuracy did not have a significant influence on the choice of forehand stroke among junior tennis players. <strong>Conclusion</strong>: This study can improve the design of the exercise program for teaching closed and open stance strokes.</p><p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu_01/0456/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>
