Girl’s TennisTryoutScoring Rubricfor

During tryouts, I am looking for not only the skills associated with the game of Tennis but the attitude and mental endurance that are a huge part as well. Players should be able to work together as a team as well as play individually.

The rubric will be based on a scale of 1-4 with 4 being the highest score in each category. The skills observed during tryouts include serving, footwork, forehand, backhand, volleying, sprinting, distance-running, and sportsmanship.
