(5) website rules

1. Stadium

The stadium should be a rectangle, 78 feet (23.77 meters) long and 27 feet (8.23 meters) wide. The middle is separated by a net hung on a rope or wire rope, and the maximum diameter is 1/3 inches (0.8 cm).

2. Network

The maximum diameter of the thick rope or wire rope of the net is 1/3 inches (0.8cm), and both ends of the net should be attached or hung on the top of two net columns, which should be square square columns with the side length not exceeding 6 inches (15cm) or cylinders with the diameter of 6 inches (15cm). The net post should not exceed 1 inch (2.5cm) at the top of the net rope. The midpoint of each net post shall be 3 feet (0.9 14m) away from the site, and the height of the net post shall be such that the vertical distance between the top of the net rope or wire rope and the ground is 3 feet 6 inches (1.07m). When the doubles net is hung on the singles dual-purpose court, the net should be supported by two "singles poles" with a height of 3 feet 6 inches (1.07m), and the cross sections of the poles should be square columns with a side length less than 3 inches (7.5cm) or cylinders with a diameter less than 3 inches (7.5cm). The midpoint of each single pole should be 3 feet (0.914m) away from the sideline of singles. The net needs to be completely opened in order to effectively fill the space between the two pillars and effectively open all the meshes, which should be large enough to prevent the ball from passing through the middle of the net. The height of the middle point of the net should be 3 feet (0.914m), and it should be pulled down and fixed with an all-white net belt with a width not exceeding 2 inches (5cm). The net rope or wire rope at the top of the net should be wrapped with white net belt, and the width of each side is between 2 inches (5 cm) and 2.5 inches (6.35 cm). There can be no advertisements on the net, net belt and single pole.

3. Stadium line

The dividing line between the two ends of the court is called the bottom line, and the dividing line between the two sides is called the sideline. Draw a line parallel to the net at a distance of 2 1 ft (6.4m) from both sides of the net, which is the service line. The court formed by the net, service lines and sideline lines is divided into two equal areas by the service center line, which is a line connecting the midpoint of the two service lines and parallel to the sideline line, and the width of the line must be 2 inches (5 cm). Each baseline is divided into two equal parts by an imaginary extension line of the service center line with a length of 4 inches (10 cm) and a width of 2 inches (5 cm), with a short line between them. This short line is the "midpoint", which is connected with the baseline at right angles and drawn from the baseline to the court. Except that the maximum width of the bottom thread cannot exceed 4 inches (1 0cm), the width of all other threads should be between1inch (2cm) and 2 inches (5cm). All measurements should be based on the outer edge of the line.

4. Permanent fixture

The permanent fixtures on the ground of the tennis court include not only the net, the net post, the singles pole, the net rope, the wire rope, the central belt and the net belt, but also the following conditions, such as the baffle around the court, the stands, the fixed or movable chairs around the court, the spectators, all the supporting facilities around and above the court, and the referees, tennis referees, foot-fault referees, linesmen and caddies starting from their respective predetermined positions. (ITF Note: In order to fully implement these rules, "referee" refers to the referee who sits on the referee's bench in the competition and all the staff who assist the referee in law enforcement during the competition)

If the advertisement is located behind the linesman's chair at the back of the court, the advertisement cannot contain white or yellow. Light colors are allowed only if they do not interfere with the player's sight. (ITF Note 1: In the tournaments hosted by Davis Cup, Confederations Cup and International Network, the specific requirements for the size of the areas behind the baseline and on both sides of the sideline are included in the relevant clauses of each project. ITF Note 2: For clubs and amateurs, the distance behind the baseline should be at least 18 feet (5.5 meters) and the distance from the sideline should be at least 10 feet (3.05 meters).

(6) Rules of Competition Equipment

1. ball

The ball used on the field needs to be evenly wrapped with textile materials, the color is white or yellow, and the seams need to be seamless. The size of the ball used shall meet the requirements in Article 4 of Appendix I (the detection of the ball is stipulated in Rule 3), and the weight shall be between 2 ounces (56.7 grams) and 2 1/6 ounces (58.5 grams). When falling freely from 100 inch (254 cm) to the concrete floor, the rebound height should be between 53 inches (134.62 cm) and 58 inches (147.32 cm). When the ball is subjected to a pressure of 18 lb (8. 165 kg), the inward elastic deformation should be between 0.22 inch (0.559 cm) and 0.29 inch (0.737 cm), and the rebound deformation range after compression should be 0.3 15 inch (0.8 cm). These two kinds of deformation data should be the average of the three axes of the test ball. In each case, the difference between any two data cannot exceed 0.03 inch (0.076 cm).

If you play at an altitude of 4000 feet (12 19 meters), you need to use two other special balls. The first is to make the internal pressure of the ball greater than the external pressure except that the bouncing height is between 48 inches (12 1.92 cm) and 53 inches (134.62 cm), otherwise it is exactly the same as the above description. This kind of ball is usually called a pressure ball. The bouncing height of the second kind of ball should be 53 inches (134.62 cm) and 58 inches (147.32 cm), and its internal pressure should be roughly equal to the external air pressure, and it can be maintained at the altitude of the designated competition venue for more than 60 days. Otherwise, it is exactly the same as the above description. This kind of ball is usually called zero pressure ball or no pressure ball.

All tests on ball rebound, size and deformation shall comply with the provisions of Appendix 1.

The International Tennis Federation will decide whether a ball or sample meets the above criteria or whether it can be approved for use in the competition. This ruling may be the initiative of the International Tennis Association itself, or it may be based on the application of all people who are really interested, including any player, equipment manufacturer or national tennis association, and their members. Such applications and rulings shall be conducted in accordance with the review and hearing procedures of the international network.

(ITF Note: According to these tennis rules, all tennis balls used in matches must be listed in the official list of ITF balls published by the International Network Association. )

2. Racket

Racquets that do not meet the following requirements are not allowed to be used in competitions according to these rules:

A. The hitting surface of the racket should be flat, and the lines connected to the racket frame should form a unified rule, and the lines should be intertwined or combined at the intersection; The samples composed of strings should be generally consistent, and the density in the center should not be less than that in other areas. The design and stringing of the racket should make the front and back sides of the racket basically the same when hitting the ball.

There should be no appendages or protrusions on the racquet string, unless the appendages are only used to limit and prevent the abrasion, tear or vibration of the racquet string, and their size and position must be reasonable.

B The total length of the racket frame (including the handle) used in professional competitions from 1 997 65438+1October shall not exceed 27 inches (73.66 cm). From June 5438+1 October12000, the total length of the racket frame (including the racket handle) used in non-professional competitions cannot exceed 27 inches (73.66 cm). Prior to this, the maximum length of rackets used in non-professional competitions was 32 inches (8 1.28 cm). The total width of the frame shall not exceed 12 and 1/2 inches (31.75cm). The total length of threading plane should not exceed 15 and 1/2 inches (39.37 cm), and the total width should not exceed 1 1 and 1/2 inches (29.2 1 cm).

C the racket frame, including the racket handle, cannot have accessories and devices, unless the accessories are only and very clearly used to limit and prevent the abrasion, cracking and vibration of the racket or adjust the weight distribution, and their size and position must be reasonable.

Course type

[Edit this paragraph]

Tennis courts can be divided into outdoor and indoor, and have various court surfaces. This will be determined by economic factors. For example, lawn tennis is the most basic outdoor venue, but its establishment and maintenance costs are too expensive, so it is now replaced by an artificial court, which is cheaper and easier to maintain. In addition, a clay court is popular in Europe, and its French Open is such a court.

Caozichang

Lawn court is a kind of venue with the longest history and the most traditional significance. It is characterized by low friction between the ball and the ground, fast rebound speed of the ball, and very high requirements for players' response, agility, running speed and technology. Therefore, the grass is often regarded as the world of "offensive tennis", and various online offensive tactics such as serving and following the ball are almost regarded as the magic weapon to win on the grass tennis court, but it is difficult for the bottom line players to do it on the grass tennis court. However, due to the extremely high requirements for the characteristics and specifications of grass, coupled with climate restrictions and high maintenance costs, it is difficult to popularize it all over the world. At present, almost all the few lawn professional tennis tournaments are held in the British Isles every year, and the time is concentrated in June and July. Wimbledon is the oldest and most prestigious tournament.

Hongtuchang

More accurately, it is a "soft court", and the most typical representative is the French Open Tennis Tournament on clay court. In addition, all kinds of common sand and mud can be called soft soil foundation. This kind of stadium is characterized by high friction between the ball and the ground and slow ball speed. Players will have a lot of sliding space when running, especially when stopping and turning back, which determines that players must have better physical fitness, running and moving ability and more tenacious will quality than other courts. It is a great test for players to fight for the bottom line in this kind of venue. Players usually have to pay several times of sweat and patience to deal with their opponents at the bottom line. Winners are often not aggressive servers, but people struggling at the bottom line.

Hard ground site

Most modern competitions are played on hard court, which is also the most common and common venue. Hard court is generally paved with cement and asphalt, and the surface is coated with red and green plastic. Its surface is smooth and hard, and the ball bounces regularly, but it bounces quickly. Many excellent tennis players think that hard court tennis is more explosive and hard court is dominant in tennis matches, so we should pay special attention to it. It should be noted that the hard court is not as elastic as other courses, and the surface reaction is strong and stiff, which is easy to hurt players, and this kind of injury has cost many excellent tennis players a lot.

Carpet field

As the name implies, this is a "portable" rollable tennis court with a plastic surface and a nylon woven surface. Generally, special glue can be used to stick on the ground with asphalt, cement and concrete foundation with certain strength and hardness, and some can even be directly laid or stuck on any supporting ground. It is easy to roll, suitable for transportation and adaptable, and can be used indoors, outdoors and even on the roof. The speed of the ball depends on the smoothness of the field surface and the roughness of the carpet surface. In terms of maintenance, this kind of site is also very simple, as long as the ground is kept clean, undamaged and free of water (equipped with corresponding drainage facilities).
