Review: As a certifed professional in Europe and the USA I cannot give my support to this book. The drills are outdated and unoriginal! Mr. Dinoffer tries to promote tennis in ways but seems to go overboard in the promotion of his company and products which misses the point of "coaching kids tennis." Tennis books which focus on children must place coaching as a priority rather than selling his products. I am appalled that he is doing what he is doing and recommend that Joe start coaching with ethics. I must say that if a review is sent in after this one that really gives lots of support to Mr. Dinoffer, I will bet you that it is from him or his staff and should be ignored. I have an inside source that he promotes his stuff both out in the open and in disguise... Ignore this book it does not deserve support!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Summary: IDEAS ORDINARY
Review: I will give this book a very low recommendation the concepts and ideas are not original and actually taken from other books offered by tennis federations such as the German Tennis Federation. Joe Dinoffer needs to start writing material that he himself thinks of... I will not support this book. I am sure that the supporters of this book have absolutely no knowledge that his material has been "borrowed" from other sources. This book cannot be supported by any law abiding coach. Any reviews sent in after this one ... need to be ignored!

Review: Take this book at face value and enjoy spending some time with your kids in the background, on the playground, or at the park. This book was never intended to be a tennis book even though it was written by a well-known, successful tennis instructor. It is a skill-builder book that is easy and fun for kids, parents, and teachers to enjoy. Every p.e. teacher at the elementary and middle school level will find several different activities to get their students up and moving...and having fun!

Review: This book is ok, but I would not recommend it! The games and ideas seem to be similar to other manuals of teaching tennis to kids. I would recommend looking for coaches who have specialized in this field rather than those who like to jump on the proverbial bandwagon. Nice try Mr. Dinoffer, but a no go in my books...Dr. Robertson
