The recent COVID-19 outbreak has had great effects on people all over the world. Schools are moving their education online, cleansing supplies are running out in stores, and businesses are struggling as the economy is plummeting. For junior tennis players, the consequences are even greater.
As a result of the pandemic, indoor clubs all around the country have closed down, and now public parks are shut down as well. Right now, if the USTA tournaments didn't get cancelled, I would be flying to Kentucky to play a national tournament.

But the truth is, there are many things you can do even in your house to keep working on your game and make this time of isolation more productive.
