Tennis bags come in all different shapes and sizes for both men and women; backpacks, totes, slings, rollers, "blinged out," sophisticated, sporty, masculine, large, medium, small... take your pick! Ladies, you have a huge array of options that it is impossible not to find one that suites your personal style and meets your needs. Personally, I like BIG bags. One of my favorites is the Cortiglia Marina Nero Tennis Tote in black. It was featured in Tennis Magazine and Daily Candy; like all Cortiglia products, it is made with only the best materials. This is not only a tennis bag but can be a great carry on or just your everyday purse.

I have noticed that many beginner tennis players are not able to strike the perfect serve because they don't have a consistent manner of serving. Here are 5 great tennis serve tips to guide you in making your serve better and more challenging for your opponent:

Be relaxed when you are serving Many tennis players have the skills but don't know how to relax during the game. Relaxation is especially important when you are serving because you cannot afford tensed muscles during the serve. Relax your wrist and arm by resting your racket on your tossing arm before you begin your motion. This will retain the elasticity in your muscles. Also don't forget to breathe in and out through nose through out the game.

And now for the men... when I think of man's ideal tennis bag, what comes to mind is simple, masculine and convenient. Brands like Adidas, Babolat, Dunlop and many more have all created tennis bags with the man in mind.

Don't underestimate the height of ball toss The ball toss has a very big impact on your serve, but is taken lightly by beginner tennis players. It is a very bad idea to toss the ball in different ways. Toss the ball too high then you will upset the timing of your serving motion, making it difficult to hit on aimed target of the racquet's strings. However, if you toss the ball too low then it will be tough for you to make an accurate and powerful serve. Therefore, you need to find the perfect balance and stick to it! Practice the ball toss and establish your own rhythm through repetition. Repetition will eliminate unpredictable ball tosses.

Babolat's Y Line tennis bag is green and black and makes for a great tennis or travel bag. It's main compartment has an internal separation to keep all your stuff organized and even has a built in shoe compartment... very convenient.

Dunlop's Biomimetic 3 Racquet Thermo bag comes in a variety of colors with plenty of storage room; made for the serious tennis player. It's racquet compartment is designed to hold 2-3 racquets and is lined with Dunlop material designed to keep equipment cooler and drier than nylon alone.
