About this journal
You play three times a week. You feel like you're getting better, mostly. But you've never once counted your first serves in, and you still lose to the same guy from the Saturday group in roughly the same way every time.
In Philippine club tennis, your class is your reputation. The Tennis Journey is a tennis training journal for players who want to climb it honestly, from never holding a racket to a solid Class C, the kind of player everyone wants as a doubles partner.
It gives each session a simple job: pick one thing to work on, drill it with targets and counts, test it in real games, then write down what your coach said and what cost you points. Next time you're on court, you already know what to fix. Over a season, you get something most club players never have, which is proof that you're improving.
The book works through three levels. First comes grips, rally strokes, the serve, and scoring without asking. Then comes volleys, holding your side of a doubles court, and finishing at the net. Last comes a second serve you trust, match plans, and liga craft. Each level ends with a milestone check you tick honestly before moving up.
What's inside
- 12 practice session logs — so every booking builds on the last one
- 12 drill trackers — count serves in and rally lengths instead of guessing
- 12 match logs — opponent, scores, and what actually decided it
- 6 coach and trainer notes pages — for the corrections you'd forget by dinner
- 3 partner feedback pages — what your hitting partner sees that you don't
- 15 skill pages across three levels, each with a drill for your next session
- A class ladder guide, golden rules, a glossary, goal pages, and a directory for coaches, partners, and the liga
It's for beginners who want a real path instead of random YouTube tips, weekend players tired of plateauing, and liga hopefuls chasing a lineup spot. It also makes a great gift for the friend who just bought a new racket and now talks about topspin at dinner.
You'll still lose some matches. You'll just know why.
