Hi, 

When I was watching Match for Mima Ito I saw her reviewing notes in a notebook and I felt that I needed this very much in championships and matches. When I play Match, I don't have focus. What do you advise me to do a notebook and how do I do it and how do I make plans for Match and write it. Is this notebook useful or not?

Thanks.

Hi Dai,

I think taking notes can be very useful.  Mima Ito's notebook is famous.

The things that you can put in there are some key ideas of how to play against an opponent.  It could be the serve types, the types of placement and any other strokes that they find difficult or easy.

We also have the Vault on the site that you can use.  In there you can set up an opponent and put in notes about them.  Take a look at the Vault and see if that would be useful for you.

Where to serve, what types of serves, which direction to play in the rally.  Do they prefer FH or BH, are they weaker in the middle?  Do they move well? Do they better against backspin or topspin...

These are some of the things to take into account.
