All workouttennis.com articles are free! Except the ebook!
On entering the world of websites, you'll see ebooks on offer everywhere. These are usually pdf documents of about sixty pages highlighting some speciality of that website producer.
The difficulty of Ebooks is that you sometimes have to pay for them. Logical you'd think. How much of your knowledge do you want to give away for free, and what part of your knowledge will your reading public have to pay for ?
A quick check on the workouttennis.com copyright
The basic premises of workouttennis.com is that we are : -
. a tennis news website. I practise tennis journalism, and have enjoyed writing about all aspects of tennis for over thirty years. I have written most of this for free for these thirty years, so I will continue to do so. I like the idea of exchanging information, and getting feedback off readers. If I make people pay for thngs that are strictly opinions from my tour diary, it is a bit of a cheek! Why should you pay for that? In fact, I'm honoured that so many people are interested in reading what I have to say from my daily life.
. a practising tennis academy. The website is the information organ for the French tennis tournament circuit. Most of this is public knowledge anyway, there are other ways of finding out the details, but I prefer to give complete inforamtion of your tours six months in advance. We have been touring for so many years and it's not going to stop now. All of the details are essential for participants. If someone wants to copy the workouttennis model, then they are welcome to. It's a fine model, and we appreciate enormously the exchanges we have with other academies.
. a research establishment. Continuing the traditions of the USPTR, we believe that any academy is in a perfect position to research and report on the game. workouttennis takes this to a new level. Research on players and equipment is official. We are linked to a university umbrella, and are involved in reviews of existingproducts and systems, and proposals for the future.
Research from workouttennis.com
. an organisation that helps young people coordinate, finance and profit from the various career opportunities that are available. Specifically we are helping young tennis players be able to continue playing tennis at the same time as study. We link potential sponsors with potential players.
We have our own scholarship programme that helps a maximum of four players at any one time. In 2012 we wish to start a maximum scholarship programme for a new category of player. Details will be available shortly. The sponsorship and scholarship opportunities must be harmonised with workouttennis.com tennis academy principles that demand complete dedication to the development of a young tennis player At the same time we make sure that the other features of his growing up are maintained - education and social integration.
All of these four functions are freely open to public appraisal and comment. workouttennis will make all of these functions accessible to the widest possible public at no cost. We take great pride in our skills achieved over twenty-five years, and take great pleasure in sharing it with everyone.
Where workouttennis comes from
At the moment of writing workouttennis.com has no Ebooks. By this time next year we'll have two ebooks. These ebooks will not be free. They will résumé, each in about sixty pages of video, picture and description, the procedures that we use to get our players fit - the workout video, and the procedures and drills that we use to prepare tournament players. We will use real footage from our tours and tennis centre. Some of this footage is currently available on the website as a taster for what we stand for.
There are no special secrets of our operation, so these ebooks will be low cost, and downloadable to all. However, they will represent a full picture of workouttennis methods, and we think it correct, and standard practise, that we distribute such documents with a small charge. We will be delighted if other academies decide to adopt some of our procedures as a result of the ebooks. We think that they work!
