New Sport Unlocked: My First Tennis Lesson

Hello Everyone!

This afternoon, just as I was about to go home from work, my sister suddenly invited me to play tennis. I was honestly shocked — we don’t even know how to play tennis! But she said there would be a coach to teach us, and that was enough for me to say yes immediately. It’s not every day you get a chance to learn a new sport, so why not, right?

When we arrived at the court, the coach wasted no time. The very first thing he taught us was how to properly hold the racket and how to swing. At first, I really thought it would feel similar to badminton — but nope! The tennis racket was heavier, and I could instantly feel the difference in how I had to control my arm and wrist.

After showing us the basics, the coach started feeding us balls so we could try hitting them. That’s when the real fun began. Every swing felt like a mix of excitement and awkwardness, but I was enjoying every second. Even though my form wasn’t perfect and I missed a few shots, it felt great to be learning something totally new.

Honestly, I didn’t expect to enjoy tennis this much. What started as a random invitation from my sister turned into a fun and memorable afternoon. I’m actually looking forward to our next lesson — who knows, maybe we’ll get good at this someday!
