Abstract

The invention provides a training aid for improving the accuracy of a tennis serve or other tennis stroke. A determined target (2) is located on the playing surface of a tennis court by means of a stable aid (1) equipped with an auxiliary area (1.3). The auxiliary area (1.3) lies in a vertical plane which touches a border of determined target (2) and faces the direction of an oncoming tennis ball. At least the contour (1.3.1) of the auxiliary area (1.3) contrasts with the background of the stable aid (1) or with a playing area (3) and/or with a net.
