Up for a game of tennis?

accreditation
The shoes you wear while playing court sports can help prevent injury. When you're moving over the tennis court, your shoes need to give you stability. Your choice of shoes is therefore critical.

Take action:
Buy new, quality athletic shoes and replace them frequently; select the proper shoe to fit the activity – e.g. don't choose jogging shoes if you intend to use it for playing tennis; wear hard rubber soles that provide grip, but don't glue your feet to the floor; seek appropriate support for flat or high arches; and always follow a good stretching and warm-up routine.
