    Abstract: A training apparatus for learning and improving upon proper tennis swing development. The apparatus has a rectangular frame mounted onto adjustable and telescoping vertical support members. The proximal end of the frame is attached to a return guide ramp, which is curved in shape to cause a ball to be returned at a correct height for the user. The distal end of the frame is attached to a backstop panel, which is arranged upwardly oriented at a predetermined angle to return a ball at a predetermined trajectory. A flexible material is disposed across the width of the rectangular frame and extends to the backstop panel and return guide ramp, and is rigid enough to provide a ball support and return surface.
